Parece que está tentando extrair apenas os dados de segurança dos servidores de repo, mas está falhando. Execute yum clean metadata e tente novamente.
Eu já tinha instalado o yum-security antes. E eu ia fazer uma atualização, digitando o seguinte comando:
[root@localhost /]# yum update
Loaded plugins: presto, priorities, refresh-packagekit, security

Is this ok [y/N]:
Mas depois mudei de ideia, decidi fazer uma atualização somente de segurança em vez de uma atualização completa, por isso digitei o seguinte comando:
[root@localhost /]# yum --security update

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
^C[root@localhost /]#
Como pode ser visto na saída, quando eu executo o comando yum --security update , ele mostra a mensagem Limiting packages to security relevant ones para que esteja ciente da opção.
Mas eu não sei por que ele continua relatando o erro HTTP 416. Eu procurei no google e encontrei a seguinte descrição do erro, mas não parece ajudar muito.
HTTP ERROR 416 - Requested Range Not Satisfiable
A 416 status code indicates that the server was unable to fulfill the request. This may be, for example, because the client asked for the 800th-900th bytes of a document, but the document was only 200 bytes long.
Isso sugere que eu use a opção --skip-broken , tentei e a saída é a mesma.
Eu já testei muitas vezes, mas não funciona quando a opção --security é usada.
Qual poderia ser a causa possível para esse problema?
