Until there is consensus between repos each user is likely to configure their priorities differently so we decided to leave it to the user to configure manually according to their own preference. BTW, ELRepo has an EL6 branch up and running and we are gradually populating it with packages, which should work fine with SL6 alpha onwards. Regards, Phil
