I now have yum working (Installed version 2.0.8.) BUT.....
Unfortunately the command suggested in the post below does not work
(even with the typo corrected). I suspect the reason is that there is
no rpm for xephyr (only deb) except for the one I created with alien.
(Another reason could be that list of repositories in the yum.conf is
out of date)
I have added a stanza to yum.conf that points to a directory on my
machine where I have placed a (dummy) header.info file. yum finds the
header.info file, but of course complains about its format. So I now
have to know the format to put in the header.info file. (I just want to
write code!) I'm searching the Internet and have learned that later
versions of yum no longer use the header.info file. They now use xml.
Of course, I would still have to know the format of the xml if there is
no public repository for xephyr that is compatible with yum (meaning an
rpm repository I assume).
Thanks,
Paul

Thanks to advice from Kimmo Hämäläinen, I now have my first Hildon
program (the sample) compiled and ready to run. Next is to get Xephyr
running. I'm running Redhat which uses RPMs. How do I install the
Xephyr DEB file?
Thanks,
