Today FC2T1 was updated to yum-2.0.5.20040229-1.
The problem is that now yum does not work, which mean I can not receive a fixed version of yum (catch-22).

Check your /var/cache/yum/whatever_your_development_directory_is_called/packages/ directory and check if you still have in there and upgrade with rpm -Uvh --oldpackage yum-2.0.5.20040224-2.noarch.rpm .

For those who have hit this problem (and, like me, didn't have the old yum RPM in the package cache), you can download the yum 2.0.5 RPM from:

Hope this helps,
Peter.

It does.
One would hope that up2date and yum do not change within 48 hours of each other in the development process.
Call one chicken and the other egg then one can bootstrap or repair the other.
