So, cloning package for RHEL is ok Cloning package from RHWAS is also ok (in a sub-repository, of course) RHWAS provides php-5.2.10-1.el5s2 as should CentOS I think that providing packages which are not RH's upstream introduce a terrible confusion for final users. I think this is definitively something for third party repositories. So, to resume, is CentOS a clone or a fork of RHEL ? Best regards, Remi
