Description Jeff Burke 2011-08-10 18:04:38 UTC
Description of problem:
 We currently have to support RHEL5.3 EUS for several more years. Currently we have an issue in Beaker that exposes an anaconda issue in RHEL5.0-5.3 anaconda doesn't handle the repo command properly.

 Unfortunately since RHEL5.3 has shipped we can't fix it there the only thing we can do is workaround it in Beaker. We need to the repo commands from the RHEL5 kickstarts.

By default we get all the repos we need from the default kickstart except the debuginfo ones. This only means we would be missing the debuginfo repo for installation, it would still be added in %post for use after install.

For more details see RT#117129.
