Does yum pick a mirror at random now?  I run several machines
through the same caching http proxy and when I first started it
seemed like most files would be cached.  Now, with no change at
my end it seems like there is never a cache hit even when
another machine just performed the same update. Is there a
way to force the order of mirror attempts to be the same so
the cache will work again?
