to be anal - yum is not broken - yum is doing exactly what it should do
under the circumstance where the metadata it requires is missing. It's
exiting with what I think is a fairly obvious error.

I'm being picky, I know, but I'm trying to offset a bunch of bug reports
about yum being 'broken' b/c it can't find data that's not there. :)
