For systems with a few packages from Epel this is my favored technique. Epel has a lot more packages that overlap or interact with base repo packages, if I'm not mistaken. But for my CentOSPlus repository use case, I leave the repo enabled in the config file; forgetting to re-enable it could leave these systems without neccessary drivers. As the repository contents is desired _in total_ over the base packages, there's no down side for this use. -- Charles
