Thanks ricky. I think this will be useful in the future when cleaning
up our old pile and getting items set for RHEL-6 in the coming 6
months or so.

We need to figure out what packages are duplicates and what have been
pulled into EPEL from RHEL. I used to use the CentOS DVD's for that as
you can see what has been 'dropped'/added over time.
