</I>Ok, most of my problem was due to my inadvertantly removing the official
mirrors when I had a problem booting a few days ago.
The only repo defined was the mga2 dvd.
(I had tried simply reinstalling mga2, a trick which sometimes works.
I ended up having to scan for & remove bad blocks, which did work.)
Sorry for the noise.
After activating official mga2 repos, adding + activating my usual local
repos of updates I've installed, I got a list of 133 packages.
A few tests showed that the packages listed were only those *not* in
activated repos, whether local or not.
Duplicate packages or updates in activated repos didn't produce any
false positives.
(It is important to ensure that local repos are up to date.)
In other words, the list was correct.
So to ensure that the urpmq --non-available lists all non-supported
(including obsoleted) packages, in addition to setting up official
repos, local repos which might contain such packages should be deactivated.
