[Yum] Problem with yum after upgrading to fc3

[Nic Soltani]

$ su
# rpm -e libpython2.4
# rpm -q python-elementtree
python-elementtree-1.2.6-4
# yum update
There was a problem importing one of the Python modules
required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was:

/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/cElementTree.so: undefined symbol:
PyUnicodeUCS4_DecodeUTF8

Please install a package which provides this module, or
verify that the module is installed correctly.

It's possible that the above module doesn't match the
current version of Python, which is:
2.4 (#2, Feb 12 2005, 00:29:46)
[GCC 3.4.3 (Mandrakelinux 10.2 3.4.3-3mdk)]

If you cannot solve this problem yourself, please send this
message to <yum at lists.linux.duke.edu>.
