Thanks Jack. I should have searched the RH bugzilla ofcourse. This
confirmed my suspicion this was caused by the info being duplicated in
the cache (which is not cleaned due to the linked bug) giving the error..

It does seem a "yum clean all --noplugins" will clean the external
repoinfo for me though, and this is mostly what I need to do anyway.
