Depends on how it is configured. If run for i386, the report is true,
because kernel-devel is available for i586/i686 only (in the CentOS 4.6
repo at least). The arch here must be i686 when running repoclosure.
Given that some of my packages were complaining about missing glibc
I'd say that the script is broken and the results cannot be relied
upon.
It isn't broken. It was misconfigured on Fri, 13 Jun 2008 16:51:25 +0000
(UTC) according to the diff that was sent to sysadmin-members. For ppc and
x86_64 the RHEL repository URLs are bad. As why this doesn't create a
fatal error in yum remains to be investigated.
