[Yum-devel] [PATCH] Lazy initialization of mirror lists

[James Bowes]

Hi all:

The attached patch makes urls, grab, and grabfunc lazily initialized
properties on YumRepository. The benefit is that if your repos are using
mirrorlists, then you only have to fetch the mirrorlists from the server
if you are doing any operations that will need the network. Previously
yum would always grab the mirrorlists, in many cases resulting in
unneeded http connections.

Anyone see any cases where this will break stuff?
