As it happens, I was doing exactly this yesterday, but on CentOS. You
have to configure yum to look in additional repositories. On my CentOS
installation, I started with:
/etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo
/etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Media.repo
You need to install the yum-priorities package:
133 yum install yum-priorities
Check /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/priorities.conf; it should contain the
following:
Next, follow these steps to bring in the RPMForge repository
configuration:
139 wget
http://apt.sw.be/redhat/el5/en/x86_64/RPMS.dag/rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.
el5.rf.x86_64.rpm
140 rpm --import
http://dag.wieers.com/rpm/packages/RPM-GPG-KEY.dag.txt
141 rpm -K rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.el5.rf.*.rpm
142 rpm -i rpmforge-release-0.3.6-1.el5.rf.*.rpm
Now, you need to mask out the version of subversion from the base
configuration, and set priorities for any and all other repositories.
Mine currently look like this (File content follows each file name
followed by a ':') :
/etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo:
# CentOS-Base.repo
#
# This file uses a new mirrorlist system developed by Lance Davis for
CentOS.
# The mirror system uses the connecting IP address of the client and the
# update status of each mirror to pick mirrors that are updated to and
# geographically close to the client. You should use this for CentOS
updates
# unless you are manually picking other mirrors.
#
# If the mirrorlist= does not work for you, as a fall back you can try
the
# remarked out baseurl= line instead.

# To use this repo, put in your DVD and use it with the other repos too:

You obviously won't have the exact CentOS yum files, but will have to
make the equivalent changes to the Fedora ones (Ignore the
exclude=openssl, that shouldn't be needed for this).
