Hmm, the script currently uses the system's yum config. May be your
yum configuration or the server it is pointing to is broken. (There
was this F7 updates problem quite recently...)
FYI: Expect an updated version soon.

Found the problem.
yum --installroot=/tmp/xxxx somecommand don't work with repos there
includes $releasever in the mirrorurl= & baseurl=, because a package
providing 'redhat-release' need to be installed in the install root
so yum can detect what version the system has.
You must be running with some locale repos & mirrorlists, if you are
not getting any error.
*Argl* yes, should have thought of this. My yum.conf is hard coded to
avoid exactly this problem. There is no way in yum to tell the $ARCH
and $RELVER when installing a fresh buildroot.
These steps make it work:
yumdownloader fedora-release
rpm -ivh --root=/tmp/yum-release-test fedora-release-7-3.noarch.rpm
OK, added a new config var. Default is using the yum config from the
release-notes. One may switch to the local config if that helps.
Have fun
