Hello List
What is the difference in meaning between "Repo" and "Repository" in the
following:

And lastly for completeness, is there a key to the last column produced
by yum list? E.g. what's the meaning of the "@" symbol and "installed"
with reference to repositories?
I'm sorry if this all seems very basic, but I've got myself a little
confused.
Many thanks,
M.
