so, I thought...things are pretty bad...let's just uninstall all the -devel packages and see what happens. 

The good news is, this server only does one thing and it's not a particularly important thing in the scheme of things...

yum update
There was a problem importing one of the Python modules
required to run yum. The error leading to this problem was:

   liblber-2.4.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Please install a package which provides this module, or
verify that the module is installed correctly.

It's possible that the above module doesn't match the
current version of Python, which is:
2.7.5 (default, Aug  4 2017, 00:39:18) 
[GCC 4.8.5 20150623 (Red Hat 4.8.5-16)]

If you cannot solve this problem yourself, please go to 
the yum faq at:
