What a pain.  I leave for 5 days and have the system run on autopilot
doing a nightly yum update and this happens.  I come back and the system
has effectively stopped working because the resolver is broken and no
hostnames resolve.  From now on I think I'll just let the yum updates
happen when I get back and hope nobody finds an exploit that needs an
emergency patch.
