Directory packages should be in its respective repository name directory. Your packages directory seems misplaced. For example, in my case..

Code:

# yum repolist

repo id                repo name                status

rhel64                Local Repo                3,720

repolist: 3,720



# yum install finger



# ll /var/cache/yum/x86_64/6Server/rhel64/packages/

-rw-r--r--. 1 root root 22K Aug 17  2010 finger-0.17-39.el6.x86_64.rpm

hi guys,
these are my result
