how do I setup a red hat yum repository

[Michael Vasiliev]

Are you sure you can't make a chimera install by salvaging packages off 
corresponding version of Fedora? In case it's not the way, creating your 
own repository is surprisingly doable. Googling for "yum repository" 
gave me enough hints when I had to do that. You're looking at some 
maintainer work (editing specfiles and recompiling the source package) 
every time the dependencies for your packages change, however.
