You still have no priorities defined. In each repo definition section in /yum.repos.d/*.repo (such as [base] [updates] [extras] ...) you need to insert a line "priority=N" where 1 <= N <= 99. No such line is the same as "priority=99" the lowest. Highest priority number is the lowest priority, the lowest number is "best" as in golf scores.

Thx a lot, but can you pls post your /yum.repos.d/*.repo file to have an example?

[pschaff]

Certainly not all of them as that would be serious overkill, and not sure how good an example it is due to my local repos, but here's /etc/yum.repos.d/CentOS-Base.repo[code]
# CentOS-Base.repo
#
# This file uses a new mirrorlist system developed by Lance Davis for CentOS.
# The mirror system uses the connecting IP address of the client and the
# update status of each mirror to pick mirrors that are updated to and
# geographically close to the client. You should use this for CentOS updates
# unless you are manually picking other mirrors.
#
# If the mirrorlist= does not work for you, as a fall back you can try the
# remarked out baseurl= line instead.

It may be, after you get rid of the duplicate repo definitions, if you are willing to have all repos whose priority you have not defined at the default level of 99.
