Hi all, I am in the midst of an update to all of our SL6 servers (in this case 6.6 -> 6.7). I noticed a while ago that both the current version repos and the 6x repos are enabled by default via the 2 .repo files; sl.repo and sl6x.repo:
/etc/yum.repos.d/sl.repo (with stuff deleted): [sl] enabled=1 [sl-security] enabled=1 /etc/yum.repos.d/sl6x.repo (with stuff deleted): [sl6x] enabled=1 [sl6x-security] enabled=1 I realize that this is benign in practice because the sl6x repos and the sl repos resolve to the same thing, but I would like to know if someone has any comments as to why we see this behaviour. (It did trip me up when during the 6.6->6.7 upgrade because I update my machines against a local mirror that is configured somewhat differently than the scientificlinux.org repos.)
