Hi, A few months ago, I wrote a plugin for yum that allows local mirrors of yum repositories to be used by grabbing config information over avahi. I've been using it since then, as have a few of my housemates, and it's worked reasonably well.
I've stuck it in a Git repository. This should get it: git clone http://users.ecs.soton.ac.uk/~rds204/yum-avahi/.git There are certainly a few bugs in it :-) I wasn't sure what the best combination of setting/clearing/modding the baseurl and mirrorlist was to force yum to use the local mirrors (whilst still falling back on the other mirrors). I accidentally sent this to the yum list rather than the yum-devel list when I first wrote it - I only just realised this. It would be cool if it were considered for inclusion in yum-utils.
