This has nothing to do with MythTV. Have you considered posting to
the redhat-users or fedora-core-users mailing lists?
I interpret the error message to say quite loudly "your version of
yum doesn't support this package or yum data-format".
I mean, from that message I read "yum >= 2.6.2" to be a package &
version. I'm pretty sure that `yum` is in fact a package manager, so
`yum yum` (I love it!) may well do the job.
What version of `yum` is installed presently? Are you able to upgrade
`yum`?
Stroller.
