just read your thread :-)

and i'd like to confirm that k12ltsp repositories have a buggy version and 
maybe out dated too of mondo.

i had the same errors. and after getting the latest release from mondo org the 
problems were solved.

i suggest updating the repos rpm with latest version from mondo org.
