I've never used it. When you install/update, yum shows which repository the package \
belongs to. This has been sufficient so far.
https://wiki.centos.org/PackageManagement/Yum/Priorities \
<https://wiki.centos.org/PackageManagement/Yum/Priorities> / 7. A Cautionary Note:
# Note: The upstream maintainer of yum, Seth Vidal, had the following to say about
# 'yum priorities' in September 2009
# Gosh, I hope people do not set up yum priorities. There are so many things about
# priorities that make me cringe all over. It could just be that it reminds me of
# apt 'pinning' and that makes me want to hurl.
# The primary concern is that priorities is heavy handed over removing packages
# from the transaction set. It makes it difficult to readily determine what packages
# are being ignored and why. Even so, it is very flexible and can be extremely useful
# to provide the largest available list of packages.
Best regards
Gerald
