Dag in the thread about kvirc, I had pointed to dries repo, based on a list of repos I use *now*, that replaced your repo with rpmforge. This based on an instruction earlier that I should use rpmforge instead. So when I run my "yum --enablerepo=* list...", it did not show your repo contents.
Should I be including *both* rpmforge and dag?
TIA Bill

No, if you install rpmforge-release you will be using:
'dag' on EL2, RH7, RH9, EL3, FC1, FC2, FC3 and EL4 'dries' on FC4 and FC5
I'd like to leave the other FC? release and possible RH9 to dries (or someone else if Dries has no resources to do it) but as long as there is no alternative, I'm doing those as the authoritative builder.
Even though a big part of the packages are being packaged by Dries.
Packaging and building are different things in the RPMforge context. It's not because you package something, you're also building it for all the different distributions/architectures.

<snip sig, leaving the part I really love, above>
Thanks. That clears it up for me. I hate when I give only a partial answer without realizing and telling.

Does the above mean that if rpmforge-release is installed, there is also no need to have a dries.repo file in /etc/yum.repos.d? Sorry if obvious!

Correct. There should be no reason.
