A lot of the RPMs we are going to download and host locally in our Nexus and use the YUM plugin to help us track dependencies with puppet.
For instance I want to add the latest java jdk to the repo via the "Artifact Upload" tab for our third parties.
I tried setting the artifact name to what I wanted 'jdk-8u5-linux-x64' so when I install java i would yum install java. Problem is that the plug-in appears to override my settings and gives the artifact the name 'jdk' and not the full name that I have specified in the Upload screen.
Reading the {bla}-primary.xml.gz the artifact is called 'jdk' and not what I specified. Looks like it doesn't matter what I put in the artifact name it always becomes 'jdk'
PS. it looks like this group has moved from the old site (nexus-yum-repository-plugin) that is listed on github. Or am I in the wrong spot.
