Description of problem:
Evidently yum config manager confuses ID and name. 


<james> And can yum see it in "yum repolist" ?
<neb> in the list it appears to be:
<neb> rhel-6-server-optional-rpms
<neb> vs
<neb> rhel-server-optional-6-rpms
<james> Are the id and names different?
<james> yum-config-manager just takes ids
<james> repolist does both, IIRC.
<neb> doh that is subtle
<james> ugh … even worse yum-config-manager seems to take names only … doh!
<james> that can't be right.
<james> oh … the code is using name for id … nice.
<james> yeh, repolist has it's own find routine … I can fix that for RHEL-7, probably.
<neb> great. no wonder it had me so confused.
<james> neb: If you could file a RHEL-7 bug/RFE that'd be great.
<neb> this is still rhel6 though
<james> Yeh, you can file a bug there too … I just wouldn't hold your breath.
<neb> still want one for rhel7 but not rhel6
<james> Maybe for 6.6 or whatever.
<neb> OK

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
yum-utils-1.1.30-14.el6.noarch

yum side is now upstream and in f19/rhel-7 ... just need to update the yum-utils side to turn the feature on in findRepos().

Ok, so "yum repolist" and yum-config-manager work different.
Should we fix repolist or yum-config-manager?  Should it search IDs, names, or both?  Thanks!

This is the yum side commit:

commit 65d1cd21418b140e7ab74e568b16067a1b01d2c9
Author: James Antill <james>
Date:   Fri Jun 7 11:37:32 2013 -0400

    Extend findRepos() so it can work like repolist. BZ 971599.

...then for yum-utils:

commit 1731df0b7175a1268188e432b21fc7ee0c6e5037
Author: James Antill <james>
Date:   Tue Jun 18 15:11:18 2013 -0400

    Use new findRepos() API for yum-config-manager. BZ 971599.
