</div></div>FYI, they were deleted on purpose and here's why:<br>
When we EOL a version, we move repositories content to the EOL<br>
directory to indicate their status [1]<br>
Since the repository files installed by the rdo-release packages<br>
points to the old location, not only they are useless<br>
but they would give end-users the false idea that they still can<br>
deploy those versions by just installing those packages.<br>
<br>
Though I do not recommend to use EOL repositories You could also write<br>
your own yum repository files pointing to the new locations.<br>
<br>
