Thanks for the help.  Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work.  I tried
installing YUM again and then immediately executed rpm -q but is shows YUM
to not be installed.  Please see actual output below.

# rpm -iv yum-2.4.1-1.src.rpm 
warning: yum-2.4.1-1.src.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 69886cc7

# rpm -q yum-2.4.1-1.src.rpm 
package yum-2.4.1-1.src.rpm is not installed

Source rpms don't show up in rpm -q.
