Just checked, and no...
I don't have a /etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources.rpmnew ... there is only 
/etc/sysconfig/rhn/sources

I guess it can be fixed if I change the names of the repositories, like 
changing "yum fedora-core-2 
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/2/$ARCH/os/ " to 
"yum fedora-core-3 
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/3/$ARCH/os/ " ???

And comment out livna.org and all apt-repositories unless apt-get can be 
brought to work again... :S
