Hi, today I noticed that yum-priorities is not anymore in the base distribution - a fact that seems to be well documented. However the yum-utils src rpm still builds that package. Therefore I was wondering why yum-priorities is available in extras and not in addons. Basically http://wiki.centos.org/FAQ/General says: > What are all the CentOS repositories (directories) and what is each one > for? > > addons > Contains packages required in order to build the main Distribution or > packages produced by SRPMS built in the main Distribution, but not included > in the main Red Hat package tree (mysql-server in CentOS-3.x falls into > this category). Packages contained in the addons repository should be > considered essentially a part of the core distribution, but may not be in > the main Red Hat Package tree. However the addons repo is completely empty for CentOS 5.4. Does that mean addons is deprecated? fs
