I have recently started doing things with YUM which is raising questions.
I am listing my /etc/yum.conf in its entirety and from this I am wondering how
YUM knows that is might want to go to yum.repos.d to get anything??
Can anyone show me how the system knows this?
It is inside the yum program itself (I haven't read all the code,
but that is where it has to be)

P.S.
If you really want to find out, you could start with "cat
/usr/bin/yum" then look to see what modules are being loaded
(yummain.py(c)) reading them and the files they import etc. etc.
Wouldn't hurt to know some python though, Good Luck!
