I'd love to hear from anybody who's been able to make yum-tmprepo work.  The 
package is meant to add a --tmprepo option to yum, which (according to the 
sparse documentation) allows for a URL to a .repo file.  It seems any .repo 
file I try (and I have tried several) results in errors like:

# yum --tmprepo /etc/yum.repos.d/rhel-debuginfo.repo check-update
Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security, tmprepo
Repository rhel-debuginfo is listed more than once in the configuration
Repository rhel-debuginfo is listed more than once in the configuration
Skipping security plugin, no data
[snip]

If I copy the very same repo file to a web server and reference via http:// URL 
syntax, it errors out thus:

yum --tmprepo http://sd-util2/rhel-debuginfo.repo check-update

Loaded plugins: rhnplugin, security, tmprepo
Repo rhel-debuginfo tried to set repo_gpgcheck=false
Repo rhel-debuginfo tried to set repo_gpgcheck=false
Skipping security plugin, no data
[snip]

The repo I'm pointing to is the stock unmodified debuginfo repo provided by the 
redhat-release-5server package.

I have yet to successfully make the plugin actually use any temp repo and I'm 
just wondering if anyone else has, or whether the plugin is perhaps just 
broken.  Any feedback would be appreciated.
