Why are you trying to install such an old version of yum?
Assuming you are using 32bit FC10 go to the following link and double click on the yum rpm.
Edit:
I guess it is a noarch rpm so 32/64bit will not matter.
yum-3.2.20-3.fc10.noarch.rpm

That server is quite slow but it is working. I checked both here at home and a remote server I have several states away.
Edit: You should also be able to look in your install media and pull it from there.

Both of paths in those links are bad. Post the results of yum repolist.

It looks like the idmcommon-noarch repo is bad (never heard of it either). Copy and paste the contents of the /etc/yum.repos.d/idmcommon.repo file. The name may be a little off but it will be one of the files in that directory.

[idmcommon]
name=Fedora IDM Common - $releasever - $basearch
baseurl=http://directory.fedoraproject.org/yum/idmcommon/fedora/$releasever/$basearch/RPMS
[idmcommon-noarch]
name=Fedora IDM Common - $releasever - noarch
baseurl=http://directory.fedoraproject.org/yum/idmcommon/fedora/$releasever/noarch/RPMS

If you look back to the root of that link:
Quote:
directory.fedoraproject.org/yum/idmcommon/fedora/
|
You will see that there is no F10 section. So wherever you got that repo from it was not meant to be used with F10.
I will look around and see if I can find the standard F10 repo file.

The way you fix it is to remove that repo and just use the standard one. I do not currently have a F10 system around so I cannot just post the standard repo file.
