Arch Linux has moved their "python" binary, so you need to patch...
(all #!/usr/bin/python needs to be replaced with #!/usr/bin/python2)

We do similar things on Mac OS X and FreeBSD, where /usr/bin/python
is outdated or non-existant. (real one is in /opt/local or /usr/local)

PS. This broke a *lot* of python programs, not only yum...
    See https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Python#Python_2

    Almost everyone else has Python 3000 as "python3" instead.
    (and "python2" doesn't exist, only python2.6 and friends)
