Do you have a transparent proxy in the network?
Can you debug a little bit and find out what "repomd.xml" file you
have in your /var/cache/yum/livna directory?
For example, fetch the metadata files manually and compare the
checksums stored within it?
$ wget http://mirror.atrpms.net/livna/fedora/8/i386/repodata/repomd.xml
$ wget http://mirror.atrpms.net/livna/fedora/8/i386/repodata/primary.sqlite.bz2
$ sha1sum primary.sqlite.bz2
17e08a77c8f23a55739894509335d8a707eec618 primary.sqlite.bz2
That checksum should be listed in the repomd.xml file:
$ grep 17e08 repomd.xml
<checksum type="sha">17e08a77c8f23a55739894509335d8a707eec618</checksum>
