After installing dropbox from the RPM package availble on the site on a new Fedora 15 install, I was unable to use yum without coming across this error: $ update Loaded plugins: langpacks, presto, refresh-packagekit Errno 14 HTTP Error 404 - Not Found: Trying other mirror. Errno 14 HTTP Error 404 - Not Found: Trying other mirror. Error: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml) for repository: Dropbox. Please verify its path and try again For some unknown reason dropbox repos dont seem to work past 13 so you’ll need to change the dropbox.repo file from detecting the current release to 13 like so: Open the dropbox.repo file: sudo gedit /etc/yum.repos.d/dropbox.repo Change the baseurl from $relesever to 13 like so: Original: Dropbox name=Dropbox Repository baseurl=gpgkey=New: Dropbox name=Dropbox Repository baseurl=gpgkey=Save and close and everything should be working, try using sudo yum update to check and the error should have gone away. If not give a reboot a try.

Join GitHub today. GitHub is home to over 28 million developers working together to host and review code, manage projects, and build software together. It is not a damage of your repomd.xml (repository meta data). I see here two possible problems: your proxy server has a stale partially retrieved copy or just refuses to give a good one.
