On my Fedora 12 system, all of the 'debuginfo' [rawhide-debuginfo,fedora-debuginfo,updates-debuginfo,updates-testing-debuginfo] are disabled by default in the corresponding repo's under /etc/yum.repos.d/. As debuginfo-install makes use of these for retrieving all the information for crash reporting, this should not work but still in present case ABRT can download the debuginfo packages. How is all this gettig possible.
Please guide if i'm missing any thing, thanks in advance.

Do you mean to say that ABRT enables them at run time.

ABRT doesn't use the yum configuration nor does it install the debuginfo packages where yum would install them.

True but irrelevant, as ABRT doesn't use a yum command line.

Then how does is it getting posible for ABRT to download the packeges, its makes use of YUM as i understand from the following lines copied from manual available for debuginfo-install [man debuginfo-install] used by ABRT for installing of debuginfo's.
---snip--- FILES As debuginfo-install uses YUM libraries for retrieving all the informa- tion, it relies on YUM configuration for its default values like which repositories to use. Consult YUM documentation for details:
/etc/yum.conf /etc/yum/repos.d/ /var/cache/yum/ ---snip---

ABRT doesn't use debuginfo-install, it uses abrt-debuginfo-install, which is run by abrtd, running as a daemon (root). abrt-debuginfo-install (a shell script) puts the packages it gets into /var/cache/abrt, rather than installing them normally, so they will need to be downloaded again if they are to be used for local debugging.

I don't think so that there is something like 'abrt-debuginfo-install' that is used by ABRT, the following blog makes things clear to me. http://blogs.gnome.org/hughsie/2009/06/29/abrt-and-pk-debuginfo-install/

You can believe an old blog page or you can believe `rpm -ql abrt`. In any event, ABRT uses abrt-debuginfo-install, which is a shell script readable by anyone who wants to learn what ABRT does to install debuginfo packages..

Hmmm...thats a solid one (^_^)/(\(^_^)/(^_^)/^_^)/. So per following code 'yumdownloader --disablerepo="*" --enablerepo="fedora-debuginfo*" --enablerepo="updates-debuginfo*" --quiet $pkg >>yumdownloader.OUT 2>&1' in this script. yumdownloader is used for all this.
Thanks for your time and help, its clear now.
