I made another test on the Centos system.
I changed the download URL for vbox to ..../fedora/19/...
did a 'yum clean all' and another 'yum makecache'
YUM was happy, all updated correctly.

Back again to the normal .../el/7/... URL
and doing 'yum clean all' and 'yum makecache' again,
and the same error was back again.
There has to be something bad in that /repodata dir .
