There are a few options :
- You can prevent this by not syncing the centos-release RPM from the CentOS repository but managing exceptions for many repositories is a lot of work, some packages such as Chrome also insist on installing their own .repo file even
- We run a job every night which simply removes all .repo files from /etc/yum.repos.d/ as I want all my managed machines to only get RPM's from Spacewalk
While the second option isn't the most elegant it does work reliable.

Subject: [Spacewalk-list] Remote .repo files re-creation
Hi,
we found that when we update our Centos systems to a minor version
release (ex: 6.6) the .repo files are recreated, so systems seek
updates on remote repositories and not on spacewalk repository.
It is possible to configure systems to prevent the re-creation of .repo
files?
We have the same problem for updates from unofficial repositories, such
as Remi.
Systems: Centos 5.X, 6.x
Spacewalk server: Centos 6.6 / Spacewalk 2.3
thanks a lot
Domenico Malorni
