Hi Grigory,

First, thanks for reporting issues, it's always appreciated.

So, to put things strait: all versions of Yum currently in Debian have
the issue? Would you be able to make a patch to fix this?

Also, I'd like to know what you used as a yum command to have the above
results, so that I can reproduce it locally. Please let me know.

As we are close from having Lenny EOL, I think I wont have time to fix
it before next February, but I can try to have this fixed in Squeeze,
before I upload a new upstream version in SID.

Cheers,

Thomas
