Is there any reason the "extras" repo hasn't been updated in a while? Modules like kmod-xfs and kmod-drbd/kmod-drbd82 are frequently used and haven't been updated for the latest kernel. Powerdns is two months behind the critical security update to 2.9.21.1.
If you're going to provide the extras repo as a default CentOS repository, then it MUST be given the same attention as the "updates" repo.
Please update ASAP.
Thank you, Kenneth Price

the kmod's issue has been discussed a few times, and pkgs are available that address the issue, pending feedback move from testing. Nothing stops you from helping that testing effort to get the move done quicker.
w.r.t the pdns issue, do you want to go ahead and open an issue report on bugs.centos.org/ and include the update spec patch ? Assign that to me, and I'll work on getting it pushed out.
