Suggestion: Please add a single configuration file to configure common

I think you answered your own question => modify the .repo files

Thank you!!! Yes, I know that I can do it, but its nothing but
ridiculous. And, as I said, this is an unsafe approach: first I excluded
it from one repo, then I discovered that I should add another
repository, and then another one. What if this package is in 50 repos?
Or you want to set metadata_expire for 50 repos?
I wonder if having a single packages.conf is THAT hard!!!

WTF don't you read other answers before continue to rant?
just edit "yum.conf" instead demand a useless "packages.conf" duplicating what is already there
Have you read my first email carefully? yum.conf is only used by yum, DNF and PackageKit/Gnome software don't care about it.
