OK.  Well that is different. I was changing my yum.conf file and of
course that would never fix anything.

Now, I wonder why that during an upgrade such as moving from fc2 to fc3,
that the sources file you are speaking wasn't upgraded.  I know we may
have specialty site that we go to in that file but as a new base maybe a
new sources file would be provided when upgrading but the older
'sources' file kept aside.  Just wondering..
