I haven't tried using yum variables in the kickstart 'repo' line.  I
honestly don't recall whether it works or not.

Can you confirm that it doesn't work?  I think it might be worth
considering as a feature request for anaconda/pykickstart.  Of course,
without digging deeper, I'm not sure what plumbing (if any) would be
required to enable this.

Thanks,
