Hola!

I have a standard config with yum cache in /var/cache/yum, and each
repository puts its cache below this dir.

I reorganized my yum.conf a bit, and changed the name of the repository from
[test] to [fc2].  I also renamed the cache directory from test to fc2.  On
the next update all headers were downloaded, the cache was not used.  Can
you tell me why?  Can I prevent this in any way?

When i moved the repository definition to a separate file /etc/yum.conf.fc2
but kept all else identical, yet again the headers were downloaded in full.
Can you explain why?  Can I prevent this?
