Sure it is different from including the packages ourselves, that wasn't the point. My point is, that if we can refer to anything, we might as well include the configuration files for those third party repositories that hold the packages we can't ship/include.
In other words: there's no difference in being allowed to link to anything and actually shipping the link in that very package.
Hold on. I think you two are on different pages here. You're both making sense, but seem to be talking about different things.
Rahul, exactly what constitutes "linking" or "pointing" to these external packages? Do you mean a Note in some documentation somewhere? Perhaps in the distro or on a website somewhere? Or is it an actual entry in /etc/yum.respos.d/ pointing directly to the repo where the packages can be downloaded from? --
