Those look like they should....

What do

rpm -q sl-release
yum provides redhat-release

report?

Hi Pat,

Repo files are attached. I did an rpm install of
yum-conf-sl6x-1-2.noarch.rpm separately after the VM creation hoping
that it would fix the problem, but no luck.

Just a minor correction to my previous email, its not pycurl but yum
that is not able to expand the $releasever

Can I see your yum repo files (/etc/yum.repos.d/sl*.repo)?

Hi,

I created a minimal SL6 image with yum groups base+core and
openssh-server using
http://linux1.fnal.gov/linux/scientific/6x/x86_64/os/. Image is created
fine but when I boot up and try to run yum update it fails with  errors
(see below). I also tried enabling and disabling mirrors doing yum clean
all every time before I run the update command.

I also noticed there is a /var/cache/yum/x86_64/$releasever dir.
Removing this $releasever dir does not help. It is recreated. For a
working system $releasever in the yum cache is actually expanded to the
respective versions but not in this case.

Is there a package pycurl depends on that is not pulled by default
making it unable to expand the $releasever correctly?
