Hello John,

Thanks for looking into that.

Yes, but if that is the link that you got from my email, it has really be 
obfuscated, because I referred to
  https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=http-3A__ftp.scientificlinux.org_linux_scientific_7.1_x86-5F64_updates&d=DwIBAg&c=gRgGjJ3BkIsb5y6s49QqsA&r=gd8BzeSQcySVxr0gDWSEbN-P-pgDXkdyCtaMqdCgPPdW1cyL5RIpaIYrCn8C5x2A&m=_3M6FrJtTVZjayecd5vwRmx-4FYK_CIl5_jf8eLHVDo&s=A37jci2_ztyHQvRvuBgTwyflm_Xs1LbsPhpuD7ibxnk&e=
which I believed was defined in my
  /etc/yum.repos.d/sl7-security.repo
as

But I was wrong!

A "yum repolist | grep security" gives me:

as $slreleasever seems to be replaced by "7x" rather than "7.1".

I added a "new" repo "sl-security71" with $slreleasever=7.1 to 
/etc/yum.repos.d/, and hooray! All packages can be seen now with "yum list". 
:-)

Trying to obtain the same result (i.e. access to 7.1 RPMs through yum) by 
changing the content of /etc/yum/vars/slreleasever to "7.1" failed, though! 
(Tried also "yum clean all" just because, but no difference.)

Anyway, I learned a lot today! And I have a recipe to get older packages 
directly through yum.

Cheers
 									Dirk
