<p><br>
<tt>Updating the repo so it is accessible by sub version would be
a way to fix this... like SL does.<br>
7.4<br>
7.5<br>
7x</tt></p>
<p><tt>The way it is now I have to disable elrepo so it does not
brake my systems.<br>
When yum as an error - yum-cron stop all updates, including
security updates.<br>

Because it's not something that yum can do.<br>
