In some instances, centos upstream packages found in smetest and released by us do not show in yum updates notifications on servers in the field. This is because centos has released these packages before we do. We have centos repositories enabled as well as our repositories. We house all the packages necessary for the distro in our repositories. If we ever wanted to disable centos repostories we could do so and still continue to have people with functioning systems and receiving updates. It doesn't hurt (most of the time) to have the centos repositories enabled on servers in the field. It just makes systems get updates to upstream packages quicker. We really should be putting anything that people are able to pull from centos into smeupdates as soon as possible. (Shad)
