Hello everyone,

I would like to propose for review a patch adding a feature to 
yum-autoupdate.

The need is to enable/disable desired repositories during yum-autoupdate
execution.

For instance, we want to enable SL updates while discarding the
repositories added after installation by the server end users
- which are not necessarily reliable for automatic updates.

We added two options to the sysconfig file in order to achieve
this (ENABLEREPO and DISABLEREPO) which basically contain what 
--enablerepo and --disablerepo yum options would.

Do you see other/better means to do that ?
Do you think it's a desirable feature, worth merging ? 

Attached is a patch based on latest 2-6.3 version.

Cheers,
--
