Upcoming Changes to the IUS Yum Repository

 

In the near future (not scheduled yet), we will be switching over to a new Yum repository layout. This is due to the change in build syste as well as to clean up a few things that were never officially released. The following should be noted:

 - Most users should not notice the change

 - If you access our repos via a 'baseurl' rather than 'mirrorlist' your 
   client config will no longer work. The directory layout is changing 
   slightly so hard coded paths will break.

 - If you access any of the 5.x point release repos your client config 
   will no longer work. We will no longer publish point release repos 
   once the change over is complete.


We are announcing this now so that if there are any questions or concerns we have time to respond to them before moving forward. We expect to schedule these changes sometime over the next week or two. Please contact us if you feel this may negatively affect you.
