Thanks all. As a followup question then, how do I use the various links to
the 'repodata' items? Is there a writeup on how to use those? I'm looking at



   - x86_64/repodata/filelists.xml.gz<http://openafs.org/dl/openafs/1.4.10/rhel5/x86_64/repodata/filelists.xml.gz>(12KB)
   - x86_64/repodata/other.xml.gz<http://openafs.org/dl/openafs/1.4.10/rhel5/x86_64/repodata/other.xml.gz>(8KB)
   - x86_64/repodata/primary.xml.gz<http://openafs.org/dl/openafs/1.4.10/rhel5/x86_64/repodata/primary.xml.gz>(8KB)
   - x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml<http://openafs.org/dl/openafs/1.4.10/rhel5/x86_64/repodata/repomd.xml>(951
bytes)

Unless, there is a different file I would use to add the repository. I don't
see that these are rpms themselves and thus cannot be added via

rpm -Uhv http:...

Do these represent configuration added to /etc/yum/repos.d ???
