in my mind, Dell's repo should itself be an rpm package - like every other civilized group of developers do - and not some script that mangles it all in. Put it into a rpm, this way yum/dnf/anytool will be able to update all necessary repo changes - dnf update will update repo configs - simple. regards L.
