I thought something like that might be the case. Here's a copy of my
/etc/conf...

$ cat /etc/yum.conf
# See the yum.conf(5) man page for information the syntax of this file,
# including failover setup.

[main]
cachedir=/var/cache/yum
debuglevel=2
logfile=/var/log/yum.log
pkgpolicy=newest
distroverpkg=redhat-release
tolerant=1
exactarch=1
exclude=kernel*

[base]
gpgcheck=1
name=Fedora Core $releasever - Base
baseurl=http://download.fedoralegacy.org/fedora/$releasever/os/$basearch

[updates]
gpgcheck=1
name=Fedora Core $releasever updates
baseurl=http://download.fedoralegacy.org/fedora/$releasever/updates/$basearch

[legacy-utils]
gpgcheck=1
name=Fedora Legacy utilities for Fedora Core $releasever
baseurl=http://download.fedoralegacy.org/fedora/$releasever/legacy-utils/$basearch

==========================================

I'm thinking I left out one of the necessary entries.

You have found the bank of Larn.
I can explain it for you, but I can't understand it for you.
I speak only for myself, and I am unanimous in that!
