Are you seriously using yum at the same time as dpkg/apt, on the same
system?

Honestly, I never did that, and I never though it would be a good idea
or even possible without having a shitload of issues. The reason I
maintain yum is to be able to use it to bootstrap CentOS in a chroot
(the say way you'd use debootstrap).

Anyway, I think that's a problem upstream, and you should ask at:
yum development <yum-devel at lists.baseurl.org>

I've put them as Cc:, in the hope they can have a look at:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=651390
and give opinions how to fix in Squeeze.

Cheers,

Thomas
