Hi. I was getting the same error. It seems to be related to the "Dag"
repository.
(ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/extra/dag/redhat/el4/en/$basearch/dag/.)
If I disable that, e.g. by using "--disablerepo dag" in the yum command line or
simply by moving away dag.repo from /etc/yum.repos.d, the error goes away.
Anyone from the SL team know what the problem is with this repo, which is after
all hosted (or at least mirrored) at scientificlinux.org?
Cheers,
Glenn

Hi! I have a strange error when i do a yum update with dag repository
enabled. the error is :
Reading repository metadata in from local files

Its true that this in on SLC, but i didn't think that is a difference on
yum level so i posted here.
Thank you,
