that might work, but why do we not want centos-extras to overlap EPEL ?
Iirc, it already does this.

Ahh, I forgot we did this.  I do see some overlapping packages, but I'm not sure why we do so.  It'd be great to keep the overlap minimal IMO.

That said, it seems that people installing these packages are a *very* small percentage of CentOS users. Is there a good reason to put these packages in a default-enabled repo (extras) for all CentOS installs?  I'd think a separate "CBS" repo would allow for a bit more flexibility going forward -- especially if it turns out we have more conflicting packages (with EPEL or whatever other repos).
