Use yam to maintain your local repositories.
Once you get started with YAM you will see that you can create you own 
repository for custom packages. You can also define your own groupsets 
which will download packages from your custom repository

In order to have a custom repostory you will then need to edit 
/etc/yum.r/myrepo.repo
