Wonder what the challenges are... it should be mostly just a case of a
white/black list matching on ${name}. We already do this against
CentOS/EPEL for both src.rpm content and binary content in
i386/x86_64 ( and hopefully powerpc soon )
It likely will be easier with 6. On 5 it was unclear what of the many
channels to check against.
On 6 it's more clear what things we use and could check against.
If someone wants to write up such a script, or if CentOS folks are
willing to provide their script I could see about getting it
running here. ;)
