On a machine running CentOS 6.6, and the Rocks cluster management software,  
with Python 2.6.6, yum version 3.2.29,  
I get the following errors from running one of the example plays in the yum module:

I haven't seen that either. I could make that check for 'rhnplugin'  
in my.plugins more robust in case of an exception but I'm not sure  
what would cause it in the first place.

Okay, I've just pushed a commit that should fix the traceback:  
[https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-core/commit/4721d6d8b5e251054b01ddaf8bb852e8204c2c9f](https://github.com/ansible/ansible-modules-core/commit/4721d6d8b5e251054b01ddaf8bb852e8204c2c9f)

the commit assumes that if there's no \_plugins attribute then we don't  
have the rhnplugin enabled. That seems reasonable but it is just an  
assumption. Hopefully it proves correct in practice.
