RPM doesn't need a specialist tool for this thankfully. Squid and similar
generic caching setups can handle it quite nicely. It is true we don't
have a package that does that setup in one go (or I've not found it
anyway).
I just nfs share /var/cache/yum across the machines and configure yum
not to delete downloaded packages.
The only thing I still need is a tool to cleanup the packages dirs from
old package version (e.g. only keep the latest version).
