Broken Yum (temporary fix)

I went to update my system (Fedora 16) and apparently Yum is broken due to 404 errors for the repository.  See below:

[thenderson@ENAIC yum.repos.d]$ yum update

From what I can tell this error came about after adding a repository to my /etc/yum.repos.d directory.  The exact repo was:

http://rpm.aegisco.com/aegisco/rhel/16/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml

So I removed it from yum.repos.d:


[meeky@ENAIC ~]$ cd /etc/yum.repos.d/
[meeky@ENAIC yum.repos.d]$ ls
aegisco.repo  dropbox.repo  fedora.repo  fedora-updates.repo  fedora-updates-testing.repo  google-chrome.repo  rbel6.repo

[meeky@ENAIC yum.repos.d]$ sudo mv aegisco.repo /tmp

[thenderson@ENAIC yum.repos.d]$ yum check-update

If this works correctly you should get a bunch of update notices (if you haven't updated in a while like me)
