Subject: [SCIENTIFIC-LINUX-USERS] freeipmi update

Hi folks,

A question about the repo indexing.  On a SL7.5 system, I've got,
according to yum:

  Package freeipmi-1.2.9-8.el7.x86_64 already installed and latest version

However, nut from epel wants the next version up, so auto updates are
broken.  I do see in the ftp site that it is here:

  linux/scientific/7.5/x86_64/os/Packages/freeipmi-1.5.7-2.el7.i686.rpm

(begining of SL ftp URL removed to prevent ProofPoint mangling).

I'll happily install it by hand: but am curious as to why the index
still thinks the previous version is the one to be using?  I don't want
to take a mis-step into dependancy hell.

      thanks,
      Alec
