Have you checked the CentOS bugzilla to see if the yum failure has been
reported? You should raise a bug report if it isn't there: if nobody
reports a bug its unlikely to get fixed.

When you download rpms manually, you use the rpm command to install
the rpm packages, not yum.

Why did you download these? Only five of them appear to have anything to
do with Python and four to be connected with yum.

Which, if any, of them contain mx?

Hint: try using "rpm -qip filename.rpm" or "rpm -qilp filename.rpm" to
see what is in them.

In my Fedora15 installation the mx package is in the mx and mx-devel
packages: running "yum info '*mx*'" told me that.
