I never did like all the extra repo files for each repository. I liked

thats just my opinion. Easier to edit one file than 4. Fedora steering
folks tell me that I can go w/ what I prefer.  Thoughts?


I agree. Modularity is nice, and when sometimes missed too much,
people then tend to have each configuration line in a separate file :)

I'd even go as far as declare legacy as part of core/updates. In fact
that's how ATrpms distributes yum/smart/apt configuration
bits. core/updates/legacy (including disabled *-testing bits) are all
in a "base" config file.

I'm not sure I understand quite what you mean by the 2nd paragraph...

Anyway, here's an updated package with two main changes:
1) all repos live in one file - fedora-legacy.repo
2) file is marked as config(noreplace) in the RPM
