We currently have to feature requests to add similar (or at least overlapping) functionality to the Package type.
#2247[1] - enablerepo and disablerepo for yum type #4113[2] - Provide a generic "options"-style parameter for packages. It seems like having #4113 would remove the need for having #2247, but I wanted to get some wider opinions to make sure I wasn't ignoring some use-case that would make this not the case. Personally, I think we should move forward on #4113 instead of #2247, since #4113 seems like the more general solution, and isn't tied directly to the yum provider. #2247 does currently have some code submitted for it, however it requires a signed CLA before we can accept it. While no code has been written for #4113 yet, it doesn't look like it would actually be that much work to do. Thoughts? Opinions? Comments?
