Separating in repositories does have advantages I think. 1. The distribution of choice is selected by adding and prioritizing the repositories correctly, not by knowing exactly what the package names are. 2. After adding a repo, everything else will still "just work"; yum install mysql-server, yum groupinstall "MySQL Database".
You could for example add the repo already in the kickstart phase, simply by doing that and having the packages Provides/Obsoletes: mysql- server, you will get either CentOS-Base / OurDelta-Base / OurDelta- Testing. Alot of this is a matter of taste I guess. I suggest discussing and testing before making too many changes to the structure at the moment. -- server and sail-server should conflict on Centos. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/284899 You received this bug notification because you are a member of OurDelta- developers, which is the registrant for OurDelta. Status in OurDelta - Builds for MySQL: New Bug description: Under Centos, Packages OurDelta-server and OurDelta-Sail-server are pulled down together, but should conflict with each other. If it's as bleeding edge as discussion on IRC has indicated, Sail-server should probably live in a "testing" repo of some sort, but I think it's important to make sure that all OurDelta packages Conflicts: and Obsoletes: the other Mysql packages and separate them repo-wise.
