When I tried to run easyapache., I got the error message from easyapache, it’s strange that it works well during the passed ages.
!! Package system can not be repaired automatically !!
so I have tried to update my system packages using yum, I got these error messages from yum.
Traceback (most recent call last):

so I have tried to update os package by disabling fastmirror plugin
yum –disableplugin=fastestmirror update
and the result is success. So I have removed the package yum-fastestmirror-1.1.16-16.el5.centos using the following command
rpm -e yum-fastestmirror-1.1.16-16.el5.centos –nodeps
