This has since been fixed and works now *yay*!.

BUT...

When going to the repo list and adding/removing/editing and such, get a
permissions error below..

Failed writing new /etc/yum.repos.d/cityfan.repo repository file.  Make
sure you have the correct permissions to write repository files.  That
usually means having superuser permissions on the system.

Yet I *was asked* for root password (console helper?) and was given.  So
why is it having a permissions error?
