error by packagekit?, can't yum update

[Antonio Olivares <olivares14031 yahoo com>]

The following comes up by PackageKit:

Error Type: <type 'exceptions.ValueError'>
Error Value: Error parsing '5 # was 3': invalid integer value
  File : /usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/yum/yumBackend.py, line 2314, in <module>
    main()
  File : /usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/yum/yumBackend.py, line 2310, in main
    backend = PackageKitYumBackend('', lock=True)
  File : /usr/share/PackageKit/helpers/yum/yumBackend.py, line 182, in __init__
    self.yumbase = PackageKitYumBase(self)

    self.repos.confirm_func = self._repo_gpg_confirm

  File : /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/yum/__init__.py, line 192, in _getConfig
    self._conf = config.readMainConfig(startupconf)
  File : /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/yum/config.py, line 778, in readMainConfig
    yumconf.populate(startupconf._parser, 'main')
  File : /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/yum/config.py, line 493, in populate
    setattr(self, name, value)
  File : /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/yum/config.py, line 86, in __set__
    raise ValueError('Error parsing $r: $s' $ (value, str(e)))


going to CLI yum, I get:

[root localhost ~]# yum clean all
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
Options Error: Error parsing '5 # was 3': invalid integer value
[root localhost ~]# yum clean metadata
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
Options Error: Error parsing '5 # was 3': invalid integer value
[root localhost ~]# yum update
Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
Options Error: Error parsing '5 # was 3': invalid integer value

Any tricks/hacks to fix this?

Thanks in Advance,

Antonio
