Actually, I did some more thinking about this. it wouldn't be that hard to implement actually. you could assign a manual score to a repo in the yum.conf file and have automatic +1 or +2 for file vs http vs whatever or +1 if gpgcheck is on or whatever. and it'd actually be simple to implement - but I'm not sure I have time to do it right now. If you're interested take a look at clientStuff.HeaderInfoNevralLoad() -sv
