You're missing the entire directory, less the file provided to you the other day. I don't know where the directory went, or if this will solve the problem, (since there may be other things missing) but I can make the missing files available to you via http. http://www.tuxfan.homeip.net:8080/rpmfiles/ You'll need to create the links manually.
