Then how does is it getting posible for ABRT to download the packeges, 
its makes use of YUM as i understand from the following lines copied 
from manual available for debuginfo-install [man debuginfo-install] used 
by ABRT for installing of debuginfo's.

        As debuginfo-install uses YUM libraries for retrieving all the 
informa-
        tion,  it relies on YUM configuration for its default values 
like which
        repositories to use. Consult YUM documentation for details:

        /etc/yum.conf
        /etc/yum/repos.d/
        /var/cache/yum/
