Cause: yum would interpret repoids and then just use the interpreted value (Eg. foo$arch => fooi686)
Consequence: yum would lose the original, uninterpreted, data
Fix: use the original data, when saving
Result: will now save as foo$arch

PK is just doing repo.disablePersistent() -- I think this must be a yum bug. The problem here is the $basearch value in the [repoid] We're not converting back to it so it can't find it in the list of repos it knows. I'm looking for a nice fix now. I would have beta lot that this didn't work (becase $ is not allowed in a repoid) ... but it turns out that ConfigPreProcessor() is doing the substitution before we even see it. Ie. what we get from parser.sections() has already had the replacements done. patch that fixes this problem sent upstream. I have filed a new bug 679098 regarding yum-config-manager since the GUI variant seems to be fixed with yum-3.2.29-5.el6.noarch but yum-config-manager tracebacks in a similar way.
