But it will become a problem when you upgrade to another version of the distribution (or change architectures). It will become necessary to edit this file again to have it work correctly for you then. Whereas, if you parameterize them now, the variables will continue to work for you even after. Most REPO maintainers go to great length to ensure that this works correctly for this very reason. And the variables are a feature of YUM, not the repos. >>> 2) I don't think the baseurl line should be indented.
