Why should I use rpm if I have yum? :) It is easier and much more convinient to use. Also if the package is signed, why not to verify it's signature first before installation? That's the purpose of the signature to be verified ;) If you always skip signature verification, why to sign package at all? Anyway, I don't see any object to argue about. I just wrote a script, that automates the method described in a wiki. Nothing more. I do not force anyone to use it. If that wiki article has a right to exist, so does the script. If you think that wiki article describes a bad way to follow, let's remove both the wiki and the script. If one thinks, the script points a bad way to move, so does that wiki article I suppose. If you ask me, I would include RPMForge repo rpm to some official CentOS repo. So that I would be able to install RPMForge via single "yum install rpmforge" command that will do everything for me including priorities managing. RPMForge is the most widely used RPMForge repository. And it is a pity we cannot add it to yum repository list in a really convinient way. Manually editing files to setup this repo cannot be considered convinient in my point of view. That's why I wanted some automation. Time to time I need to setup servers with CentOS. And I am tired of manually installing RPMForge repository into system. "Priorities" setup is important for people, that want really stable system. You can skip them, but I personally will never do that and don't recommend doing that to someone else. Even if someone here in this thread said, that their use is completely optional...
