Yes.  I can't do updates without it..

Alright.  Well, I amended my /etc/yum.conf file to only read the
following:

[main]
cachedir=/var/cache/yum
debuglevel=2
logfile=/var/log/yum.log
pkgpolicy=newest
distroverpkg=fedora-release
tolerant=1
exactarch=0


I will give things a try this way. Seems to be working right now.  Will
know later if it really worked..

Thanks again for your thoughts..
