Generally not. It just means that you won't get any updates on packages that only exist in that repo. However there is some chance that a same-named package will appear with a higher version number in a different, enabled repo - and if it doesn't have the same origin there is some chance of it being incompatible in some way. This is more likely to result in a single broken app than yum conflicts, though. -- Les Mikesell lesmikesell at gmail.com
