[ale] CentOS 7 (Or: How I suck at Torrents)

[Jim Kinney]

There is no torrent available for the download. They use reposync. Once the
initial repo pull is done it's like rsync, tiny.

By using reposync, it'll setup your repodata correctly.

Every time you stop a school, you will have to build a jail. What you gain
at one end you lose at the other. It's like feeding a dog on his own tail.
It won't fatten the dog.
