You can sync them yourself (choose your favourite mirror - and use it for both). 'mirrorlist' is a nice way to distribute load across mirrors. But at the same time - no 2 mirrors are gaurented to be in sync. so 2 consequitive invocations of the 'same' tool (for eg: yum) - might give you different behavior in each case. Now you are talking about difference in behavior across tools. Satish
