Bug 17891

+++ This bug was initially created as a clone of Bug #17559 +++

The package kit stops giving an message that an error has occurred, and pointing out to file a bug at bugs.freedesktop.org. It does not give any other clue though. Then I tried using yum at the console. Any command configuration with yum (install, list, etc.) yields the following error:
File "/usr/bin/yum", line 29, in <module>
    yummain.user_main(sys.argv[1:], exit_code=True)
  File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 229, in user_main
    errcode = main(args)
  File "/usr/share/yum-cli/yummain.py", line 84, in main
    base.getOptionsConfig(args)
