dependency with epel

I'm using ovirt on some centos servers, so i installed http://resources.ovirt.org/pub/yum-repo/ovirt-release35.rpm It provides a ovirt-3.5-dependencies.repo, which contains: [ovirt-3.5-epel] name=Extra Packages for Enterprise Linux 7 - $basearch #baseurl=http://download.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/7/$basearch mirrorlist=https://mirrors.fedoraproject.org/metalink?repo=epel-7&arch=$basearch failovermethod=priority enabled=0 includepkgs=epel-release,python-uinput,puppet,python-lockfile,python-cpopen,python-ordereddict,python-pthreading,python-inotify,python-argparse,novnc,python-ply,python-kitchen,python-daemon,python-websockify,livecd-tools,spice-html5,mom,python-IPy,python-ioprocess,ioprocess,python-paramiko,python-crypto,python-cheetah,python-ecdsa,python-markdown,rubygem-rgen,ovirt-guest-agent,userspace-rcu,protobuf-java gpgcheck=1 gpgkey=https://dl.fedoraproject.org/pub/epel/RPM-GPG-KEY-EPEL-7 What's the purpose of such a repo ? Having a epel.repo is very common I think, and so the line includepkgs became totally useless with it. If you have problem with a rpm stored in epel, this will protect only a few peoples.

above includepkgs just provide the minimum set of packages we need from epel. No conflict with other rpms there, we just don't want to add a full repo of unneeded packages.
