Anaconda tries to download a file from an SL security repository. It's
come up on the list recently in the context of a kickstart install.

I don't know whether this is an SL change or whether this is an
Anaconda change between 6.0 and 6.1 because Centos 6.0 doesn't have
this issue (I no longer have an SL 6.0 DVD and there isn't a CentOS
6.1 DVD yet, so I can't compare like to like).
