Please tell that to EPEL as well. We want to be able to distribute a 
package which, in emergency, can be transferred to a standalone (read 
compromised device removed from the network) and have the rpm install 
something which can directly virus scan. Without the three files, it 
can't. I presume that is similar logic to EPEL.

Anyway, I've managed to get the files through a VPN so changing my IP, 
but this is messy. There must be a better way to do it.
