Your attitude doesn't make it easy for folks to help you. So far you 
haven't actually provided any information that might be useful in 
determining the issue.

and here we see you have made modifications to the config file. I know, 
because I wrote the config file.

The real question is why the elrepo repository is not working as 
intended for you. TBH I'm past caring as I have better things to do than 
have you waste my time when I try to help. Please don't bother 
subscribing to elrepo mailing lists.
