Priority for sources. So that if two (or more) totaly same packages exist in two (or more) sources you can set the priority so that the package gets installed from the media with higher priority. For example some prefere local sorces to have higher priority and some prefer some FTP server for packages.

i would break it down further into |local fixed | local removeable| lan | Net Close |Net Far|


example given the rpm sempterfi3.14.16.i586.rpm If you pick the rpm from a list and its on a local mount point /usr/rpmcache/
then it gets installed from there EVEN IF THE LIST ITEM IS from say http://www.paris.fr. but if the remote server has a dependent
rpm like unbacking4.32.16.i586.rpm then that gets pulled from the paris.fr server.



Speaking of which how does urpmi handle exact same file trees?
