  Except a rant, is there anything productive we could extract from your
message. I.e. what exactly went wrong ? What could have fixed it ?
  I can't make sense of "your software repository is absent". It is clear
that Red Hat is focusing on professionnal computing services where
the goal is to provide a clearly identified set of working packages
who have been tested, and does not try to integrate every possible 
package. The goal is to select and cleanup, not to aggregate an infinite
set of package without the possibility to do quality insurance.
