You might be able to find it in some other repository. mirror-select is not a package. It is an option for the RPM version of apt-get which can help determine the most appropriate repository, based either on a predetermined list, or two or more input URLs. It's sort of like netselect for Debian. I don't know if there are any plans to incorporate the option into yum. If not, I'll make a feature request. Thanks, Mike
