First, trying to get a debuinfo rpm for packaged firefox with no luck:

 debuginfo-install firefox

yum.Errors.RepoError: Cannot retrieve metalink for repository:
fedora-debuginfo. Please verify its path and try again



So I decided to try the wiki link on the webpage at
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/StackTraces#What_are_debuginfo_rpms.2C_and_how_do_i_get_them.3F
(link is
ftp://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/linux/core/development/i386/debug/)
on manually installing debuginfo rpm's and the link fails. 

So then I did a "yum clean all ; rpm --rebuilddb" and then I try a "yum
list" and now I get:


/usr/lib/yum-plugins/fedorakmod.py:25: DeprecationWarning: the sets
module is deprecated
  from sets import Set
Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, fedorakmod, protectbase,
refresh-packagekit, refresh-updatesd
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
Error: Cannot retrieve metalink for repository: fedora. Please verify
its path and try again



So how do I get the debuginfo rpm's i need?

Thanks.

Kevin
