good idea for both updating and verifying the rpm database.

yum-2.0.x depens on the system provided python-2.2 version.

you should not have python -> python-2.4
[tru at carrington ~]$ ll /usr/bin/python*
-rwxr-xr-x    2 root     root       786944 Feb 15  2005 /usr/bin/python
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root     root            6 Nov 23 00:45 /usr/bin/python2 -> python
-rwxr-xr-x    2 root     root       786944 Feb 15  2005 /usr/bin/python2.2

if you don't need the python-2.4 version (in /usr/local/bin)  and provided that
it's has been installed with rpm, you could probably remove it.

Cheers,
