I got the same thing Friday on the RHN repositories. I waited. I tried
again. It was okay. Apparently Red Hat's createrepo runs were bombing
part way through.

I've seen it happen on my own repos when there's a corrupted package
that createrepo can't handle. You have to hunt down the one bad package
and replace it with a good copy. Of course, I don't *know* that that's
what's happening here, so YMMV.
