[Nux!]

Edit the epel.repo file and comment mirrorlist, uncomment baseurl and replace 
with a url of your choice.

Firstly in /etc/yum.repos.d/epel.repo you need to use baseurl instead
of mirrorlist. I assume you are already doing this.

So then you need to do a curl -i to the baseurl (change $basearch to either
i386 or x86_64) to see where it is redirecting you. For example:

$ curl -i http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386
HTTP/1.1 302 Found
Date: Tue, 22 May 2018 09:04:35 GMT
Server: Apache/2.4.29 (Fedora) mod_wsgi/4.5.15 Python/2.7
X-Frame-Options: SAMEORIGIN
X-Xss-Protection: 1; mode=block
X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff
Referrer-Policy: same-origin
Content-Length: 0
Location: 
https://www.mirrorservice.org/sites/dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/6/i386/
Content-Type: text/html; charset=UTF-8
AppTime: D=4793
AppServer: proxy14.fedoraproject.org

Then edit baseurl in epel.repo to use the URL listed in Location: instead, 
changing
the i386 or x86_64 back to $basearch

Then you can create an exception for the specific host you configured.

Cheers

[CentOS] Use EPEL without redirection ?

[Nicolas Kovacs]

Hi,

Is there any way to deactivate the redirection to a mirror when using
the third-party EPEL repository ?

Our network uses a transparent HTTP/HTTPS proxy with a local AC. We can
create exceptions for sites like centos.org or
download.fedoraproject.org, but whenever we want to install a package
from EPEL, the mirror redirection causes an error due to redirection.

Any suggestions ?
