We got a complaint from a user that was using createrepo_c
on their Satellite box and of course the default changes messed with them. They're not really supposed to be doing that, but since Koji and others have had the same issue (needing to support EL7 repos using a createrepo_c
package from Fedora), we may as well just make it an easy problem to work around.
It's a simple fix in any case.
@kontura Could you do a quick release w/ these changes?
I believe this covers the bases in terms of ensuring createrepo_c 1.0 can still generate repos consumable by ancient RHEL / SUSE without too much effort.
I don't add
group_gz
(separate gzip-compressed group metadata) back - this is aiming for minimal additional complexity andgroup_gz
simply isn't worth it. It's usually a relatively tiny metadata file anyway.
