[Problems With gdb]
Does anyone know why gdb gives debuginfo errors when I try to disassemble system binaries in /usr/bin? I follow the neccessary yum installation that it tells me to execute, but it fails with HTTP host not found and other errors...including telling me that the debuginfo package doesn't exist.

Because it thinks you actually want to debug those binaries with source code, not just disassemble them. And the necessary debugging information and source code for that is in -debuginfo packages.
