[official] OMSA 6.1 available in yum repositories

[Stephan van Hienen]

Jeff,

I tried :
rm -f /etc/yum.repos.d/dell-omsa-repository.repo
wget -q -O - http://linux.dell.com/repo/hardware/bootstrap.cgi | bash

Not sure if this is correct for removing the current meta-packages ?

But again yum update gives :

================================================================================

  srvadmin-rac5             i386   6.1.0-648            dell-omsa-specific 
3.2 k
      replacing  srvadmin-diagnostics.i386 5.5.0-364
[..]


And srvadmin-all will just install all the rac packages ?
(and why are rac4/rac5 replacing srvadmin-diag ?)

Sure I could install srvadmin-all but shouldn't the rac packages be optional ?
