And Anne is correct here. Fedora has said before that some things just don't play together well.
If you are looking for a local repo of packages that you can install on several machines why not just set yum to keep the package(s) that you download and use them on the other machines instead of downloading all of these packages? Most of which you will not use anyway.
Honestly don't need everything, but have a number of different Fedora boxes all F9 (excl rawhides)
I would need X,Gnome, and the fedora base.
Show me how tp yum local.repo that on my centos5x server, and I'll probably go that way. el google wasn't much help as it's talking about using dvd images etc.. whebn doing locals.
