Well, you cannot use $basearch in the yum.conf because that expands to
the host arch, not the desired target repo arch.

As why the single reports has been split into multiple reports again,
I've contacted the author of that change just recently.

The other [never-ending] problems are with the various RHEL repos, which
either are moved from time to time or are not in the place that's specified
in the yum config file.

That also causes problems with the buildsys where packages are not found.

JFTR, when running the repoclosure against public CentOS 4.6 repos, the
broken deps report is different.

The run posted to this list on 2008-06-11 was close, probably just using
i386 instead of i686.
