Manchester sw repository reorganised

To simplify the maintainance of multiple releases and architectures I reorganised the software (yum) repository in Manchester.

While before we had to maintain a yum.conf for each release and architecture now we just need to add links to the right place. I wrote a recipe on my favourite site:

This will allow to remove also the complications introduced in cfengine conf files to maintain multiple yum.conf versions.
