Ok, I worked out what the yum rpm needed: python-sqlite sqlite python-urlgrabber python-elementtree rpm-python24 libxml2-python24 and fed that into yum, which went ahead and resolved more dependencies for the above packages and installed them all. I then ran yum -Uvh yum-2.4.0-63.el4.at.i386.rpm, and it installed fine Thanks.
