Re: [Centos] centos-yumconf purpose

:-O What is this way to quote ?

yum should have an include directive and/or an include directory (like

apache) so we can set our custom local configuration files. If we want to use a specific yum mirror and/or our local repository, it should be set in our local files that should never be updated.

for fresh 3.3 installs, yum.conf is never updated anymore, and will never be. ( i hope it will stay like that in the future ).

To do that simply, yum could call a preprocessing tool like m4 for the

yum.conf file.

hey :) np, just contact yum's dev team :P

By the way, is there a way that the yum.conf file sets the http_proxy variable?

dunno
