The yum folks are still looking into it.  The really bizarre thing is
that there is no problem with the package itself, in fact it's seen in
other arches, and in those other arch directories it's a hardlink back
to the actual file somewhere else on the filesystem.  That's the way it
is for each of those arch trees.  It's a real headscratcher of a
problem.
