    Repeat question from yesterday since I got no response:

1) How do I set up a repomd (yum) format repository that is set up
using "mirrorlist=URL" in yum?

2) How can I do variable substitution in a URL? I want to set up a
repomd repository (using mirrorlist function above) with a URL like:
mirrorlist=http://some.domain.com/repo/path/mirror.pl?osver=$releasever&osname=sles
  Where "$releasever" is automatically replaced with the OS version.

3) How can I write a plugin to add (two) new variables in the
substitution process? I want to set up repositories that are specific to
dell system models and have a server-side cgi redirect the client to the
correct repo based on the system model. Something like:
  mirrorlist=http://domain.com/repo/mirrors.pl?vendor=0x1028&model=0x0152&osname=sles&osver=$releasever

Any pointers would be greatly appreciated. I would like to write
something that works with opensuse and sles.
