Ok, it isn't just me getting irritated with it. I give it the arch, and it 
ignores me. I copy CentOS-Base.repo from /etc/yum.repos.d, and start editing 
it. Then I try to run with it, and the first thing it prints out is
Repository base is listed more than once in the configuration
Repository updates is listed more than once in the configuration
Repository addons is listed more than once in the configuration
Repository extras is listed more than once in the configuration
Repository centosplus is listed more than once in the configuration

No, they're not. It appears to be reading /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo, 
and *then* reading the file I explicitly gave it with a -c.

Oh, and when I try to run it, and it sits there, <ctrl-C> will NOT kill it, I 
have to kill -9 the process. It appears to think that the <ctrl-C> is for 
*only* the rpm it's d/l, and it goes on to the next one.

And I need to read more about yum's repo files, since I have no clue where it 
gets $releasever from. I just tried replacing it with 5.2, and it still prints 
out the complains (above) and sits there, doing I have no clue what.
