Fedora 12 Yum Problems


Fresh install of Fedora 12 with yum version 3.2.25-1. I've done a "yum clean all". Errors I'm seeing are:

yum update
Loaded plugins: presto, refresh-packagekit
http://download.fedoraproject.org/pu...ta/repomd.xml: [Errno 14] PYCURL ERROR 6 - ""
Trying other mirror.
Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: fedora. Please verify its path and try again

I haven't made any changes to the repository files in /etc/yum.repos.d. Fedora.repo reads:

[fedora]
name=Fedora $releasever - $basearch
failovermethod=priority
#baseurl=http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/fedora/linux/releases/$releasever/Everything/$basearch/os/

have you verified the path like the error says? It loads OK for me.

for further debug info, add a -v to the yum command and post the output if it continues to fail.
