I have no excludes in yum.conf. But I noticed something odd in the CentOS-Base.repo file. The [updates] section didn't have an explicit 'enabled=1' in it. Though, when I added it in, it made no difference. I have noticed that I do have some updated packages (like httpd) that are from February and appear to be the most recent based on the mirrors, but every mirror I hit I see no updated packages listed for this month. Maybe there's just not been any and I'm overreacting.
indeed, odd. I just looked at my local mirror of a mirror, and I'm not seeing anything in /7/ newer than Jan 20
oh. is /7/ supposed to be a symlink to /7.0.1406/ or a separate directory ? it appears my mirroring of the mirror may be broken if its supposed to be a symlink.
in /7.0.1406/, I'm seeing files up to Feb 22.
/7/ is a link to the latest release, which at this point in timeis 7.0.1406. Once 7.1 is released, the 7 symlink will point to it.
It is indeed a symlink ... and it will indeed be shifted.
People also really should use rsync with the -H option for hardlinks as that will save much space between releases as well. (Almost all the items in the 'cr' repo, 'os' repo, and 'fasttrack' repo from the 7.0.1406 tree will make up the new os repo in the newer 7.1.1503 tree.)
If you are not using -H, you have to download each RPM more than once.
