FWIW, the develop version of yum can work on local downloaded files too,
which is nice if you've missed some dependencies.

However if you want yum to install files found on your machine they
have to be in a directory hierarchy that corresposnds to the one laid
out in the yum.conf file. Usually to avoid confusion I make the
hierarchy the same as that in the repository the files came from.
