 My internet acces is through a proxy.  F11 yum on the XO does not support
 using https through a proxy
 (https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=487101).  The Fedora
 developers created a fix (in package python-urlgrabber), but due to their
 schedule constraints have released that fix to F12 only.  The result - I
 run all F11-on-XO builds (including for XO-1.5) with the F12 python-
 urlgrabber (currently version 3.9.1-2.fc12) -- without it, I could not use
 yum at home.

 Yum (with F12 python-urlgrabber) worked fine for me until the introduction
 of /etc/yum/olpc.exclude.  Then yum fails.

 My bypass (e.g., with os38) is to comment out the lines in the
 /etc/yum.repos.d/ entries which "include" /etc/yum/olpc.exclude.  Then yum
 (with F12 python-urlgrabber) works for me again.
