This bug is still unfixed in Hardy (8.04):
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$aptitude install yum
[...]
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ yum
There was a problem importing one of the Python modules
required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was:
No module named cElementTree
Please install a package which provides this module, or
verify that the module is installed correctly.
It's possible that the above module doesn't match the
current version of Python, which is:
2.5.2 (r252:60911, Jul 31 2008, 17:28:52)
[GCC 4.2.3 (Ubuntu 4.2.3-2ubuntu7)]
If you cannot solve this problem yourself, please send this
message to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>.
but ATM I tested on Intrepid Ibex Alpha 5, and it seems to be ok... have
a look:
