I did try to remove/add all rpm media, force install/replace again perl-URPM rpm, clear the rpmdb and do an "urpmi --clean" to no avail thou.
Regards.

 Some more digging and it does not seem to be related to perl-URPM package. It seems that the repositories are not setup properly. I tried to updated an older instance of VM-Box Cauldron(01Nov-last updated) and got the same issues.

it is perl-URPM that is broken.

just do:


rpm -Uvh http://ftp.free.fr/mirrors/mageia.org/distrib/cauldron/x86_64/media/core/release/perl-URPM-5.222-1.mga9.x86_64.rpm

and urpmi will start working again

 Thank you.
 This bug was short lived as updating to perl-URPM-5.222 fixed it.
 Great job.
