Hi Anne! and Arnuld!, et. al.

I may be mistaken, but I believe that you can have both baseurl and
mirrorlist active, but when changing something in the .repo files a yum
clean metadata is required to flush cookies which would otherwise
prevent yum from checking the newly-enabled url lists.  At least that is
what I have used and so far that seems to be the case, and I do have
repos with both enabled, and multiple baseurls as well.
