Description

Create a pallet ISO image from the packages found in the repository located at 'URL'.

Mirroring RHEL repositories works with a subscribed Red Hat frontend.
Direct access via a url, will not work.

If using a url, "newest" and "urlonly" have no effect. The entire
distribution will be downloaded.
