Stuart,
Well, I think yum needs to keep a list of repos to search and
information about the content of these repos in /var/cach/yum. I see all
my own repo directories in my corresponding /var/cache/yum. Here is an
example of the content of mine:
[root@cobbler1 ~]# ls -al /var/cache/yum/EPEL
total 21664
drwxr-xr-x. 3 root root 4096 Jul 3 10:06 .
drwxr-xr-x. 6 root root 4096 Jun 22 15:57 ..
-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 234887 Jun 30 20:23

I think you must have created a cobbler repo with the command
'cobbler repo create --name=epelrepo --path=[...]'
...if cobbler is trying to reposync it.
You can check this with
'cobbler repo list' or 'cobbler repo report'
If you do all your work in the bash shell, which is what I do, you can
also check the command you issued (as root) by searching the history file:
egrep 'name=epelrepo' ~/.bash_history
I hope this helps.

The immediate error is due to SELinux blocking
/var/cache/yum/epelrepo, but I do not understand why this directory is
being created.
