Enabling the vault repository isn't an option since any given release doesn't have a vault configured for its own version, only for previous ones. > On 14/12/16 04:04, Nico Kadel-Garcia wrote: > > Good point.

It also breaks when a particular release is dropped out of "mirror.centos.org"(*). The first bit is fixable one way or the other. The second bit is fixable by using "vault.centos.org", but that would require a release to be vaulted _before_ the new release becomes available. Right now "vault.centos.org" doesn't contain binary packages for 7.2.1511, so that isn't happening. (*) The point here is to be able to destroy a vagrant instance and safely recreate it sometime in the future (maybe the far future). This also means no mandatory system updates inside the VM to be able to build the guest additions. Best regards, -- Carlos Rodrigues
