I see the metadata in mirrors.kernel.org, so clearly it exists... http://mirrors.kernel.org/mageia/distrib/6/x86_64/media/tainted/release/repodata/

I'm not exactly sure what's happening here... Maybe a mirror has an incomplete replica of the metadata?

After refreshing the cache
# pkcon refresh force -c -1
and reboot the error did not occur any longer.

Shortly after I tested in a virtual machine. First I had the same error, refreshing the cache and reboot cleaned the issue again.
