i've already added a section on EPEL, just so i can install things like git. and i know there's an entire page at centos.org on extra repos. any there that you *particularly* recommend? i'll revisit that page later today but i'm thinking that, for the sake of this first-level admin course, EPEL might be sufficient for now.
How to identify and work your way out of rpm conflicts. (without using nodeps of course).
i've already added some of that, using things like --replacepkgs and --replacefiles and so on.
I think a current moderately harmless example would be getting a non-ancient version of subversion and viewvc from rpmforge, then noting that a 'yum full update' with epel enabled will swap in a viewvc configured in an incompatible way.
