I tried, and I must admit that I've never seen so fsck-ed up application.
When I first run it (yumex), after quite long time (comparing to
poldek) I managed to get a list of packages that require update. Of
course, update attempt caused rpm to complain about conflicting i686
packages (b/c they have to be updated too).
So, I edited yum pld-source.repo and added two entries for th-multilib
and th-test-multilib (i686), and, in effect, now I cannot even run yum
(not to mention yumex).

Is this a problem with yum indexes on our servers (information about
not well-formed xml suggests this), or with yum itself?
