Please forgive a possible repeat post. I did not see this in the archives so was not sure if it had gotten sent. With the differences between EL-6 architectures we are finding that we need to build things for PPC or i386 that Upstream x86_64 has. Due to people not wanting to have a different RPM spec file from upstream we will end up with an x86_64 package set too.. which as the good old Fat Controller would say "causes confusion and delay". So in order to satisfy various factions we are looking at add a COST to EPEL so that it would be higher than the default 1000 (say 1100). What I would like to know is if this would affect CentOS-6, SciLin-6 or other repos so that we can deal with it now versus later. [And as much as I would like to go with repotags.. that has been seen as a non-starter.] -- Stephen J Smoogen. “The core skill of innovators is error recovery, not failure avoidance.” Randy Nelson, President of Pixar University.
