I'd tend to point out that much of your statements have diverged from
this particular topic, including un-called-for ad hominem personal
attacks.  So I disagree with your conclusion.

Notice that nowhere in this list is a fedora.us repository.  Allow
*me* to quote from rpm.livna.org, which *is* in your list:

   RPM.Livna.org is not a standalone repository.
   You must use rpm.livna.org with
   the Fedora.us repository

It's right there in a big red box on the very first page.

I was attempting to offer something constructive, and am continuing to
do so despite your rude comments and immature attitude.  If you are so
enraged that you are no longer capable of being helped, kindly take
your rants to a more appropriate list.  I recommend this one:

It troubles me that you feel my childhood has a significant bearing on
your difficulties with yum repositories.  Perhaps you should take a
moment to locate your medication before continuing to post to this
list.  It might be less embarassing for you.
