       I have done that, but too late :-(

       I just notice I have the problem as I got no nightly update
       since I have the dag version which had overriten the SL version
       (SL4.1) 
       
       Is it possible to do :

       yum erase yum
       ftp://ftp.scientificlinux.org/linux/scientific/41/i386/errata/SL/RPMS/yum-2.4.0-3.SL.noarch.rmp
       rpm -Uvh yum-2.4.0-3.SL.noarch.rmp

       to retrieve a good yum ?

       Thanks for your help.
