I am currently in the process of updating an old Fedora server, and am currently on Fedora 12. on the last update I forgot to upgrade rpm (see here). Now yum always returns this error: Error: xz compression not available
. Any ideas on what to install to get yum functioning again?

I found out that I was missing pyliblzma
. Don't install it by switching to the epel-release though. just run this instead to install pyliblzma:
rpm -Uhv http://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/pyliblzma-0.5.3-3.el6.i686.rpm
