these shouldn't have to be there (they are from older release):
they are not there, check the official repo, rsyncing without delete flag?
these shouldn't have to be there (they are already in os):
what do you mean by that? Of course, they are to be there. They are part of the OS, exactly. You have been using CentOS for a while and upgraded several times in the past, have you forgotten in the meantime how CentOS/RHEL upgrading works?
in centos version of these packages the dist tag comes from earlier release. even if they are the same package they should have to rebuild with the same dist tag as in rhel (eg: .el5 <-> .el5_4):
these have not been updated, there is no reason to retag them
and a lots of updates still missing:
you are looking for things that don't exist, e.g. libvirt-0.8.2-15.el5_6.1 is 0.8.2-15.el5.3 And Java isn't part of CentOS anymore, AFAIK.
If you do not like the tagging/naming scheme. I'm pretty confident this is taken from upstreamm, you have to complain there.
