Would you expect users to do that for every package installed from non-EPEL repos even if they don't currently exist in EPEL or to be alert enough during updates to notice when one has been added into EPEL?. I just wish there were some way that yum could tell you before it updates from a repo different than the one used for the initial install of a package. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com
