Immediately upon entering my seemingly functional FC9 I now get a SYSTEM ERROR NOTICE. As stated; An internal system error has occurred. That is always headed with a red exclamation mark inside a yellow triangle.
I then read the information given and it is as follows;

I have no idea what is happening but all of this just started right after my last extremely large over 700 mb upgrade. I thought something was a bit unusual about the new packages and such since all the rpms were listed as "newkey" fc9 packages but I accepted that as being just another new thing. Did I do something wrong here??
Anyway, as I experiment by trying to search for yum updates directly, use yumex, or do anything within yum I get the following;

SyntaxError: invalid syntax

Does anyone have any idea what happened? As I said, Fedora appears to be functional, but it does constantly tell me I have that "Internal system error". I am not a programmer of any kind, but while the obvious immediate problem is not being able to upgrade FC9 any further, I assume the error message constantly popping up is telling me the problem is much more severe in some way or the other.
Can someone please help?
