I believe in the past we have asked the following:
1) Only build for the architectures that are excluded (eg build it
for ppc64 and not x86_64 or i386)
2) Keep to the same version or make the release number smaller than
what is in EL-5
I am not sure of what effect cost might have on other setups so will
check with skvidal and others.
Cost only matters when the pkg nevra are identical between two repos.
so if you have epel and rpmfusion
and they both have foo-1.1-1.noarch.rpm
then yum will choose the one with the lower cost.
but if they vary in evr or arch then it will sort by those
characteristics first.
