Andrew--you've got some non-standard yum repository enabled which is down and thus giving you problems. Look in /etc/yum.repos.d for the file which contains the address rpm.livna.org and then do
yum --disablerepo=<reponame> <command> where <reponame> is the name of the repository. If that works, then edit that file and change enabled from 1 to 0. Steve On Sun, 10 Jan 2010, Andrew Stallard wrote:
