I never had any issues setting external YUM repositories on RHEL. It has
been a very very long time since RHEL has used up2date - the setup now
is YUM with a repository config that points to RedHat's secured YUM
repository and a plugin that allows you to access the repository using
the up2date credentials. Obviously its not the fastest setup, but it
uses standard YUM dependency resolution which works well with the
JPackage repo.
