Consider: 1. foo rpm that is in the RHEL baseos. It's not in any module. Can epel make a foo (non default) module that overrides it? 2. foo rpm that is in a RHEL default module. Can epel make a foo (non default) module that overrides it? 3. foo rpm that is in a RHEL non default module. Can epel make a foo (non default) module that overrides it? I think we all agree 3 is fine. I think 2 could cause problems, but perhaps it would work. I would think 1 would be fine also. kevin
