Description Bill Nottingham 2004-09-10 04:31:36 UTC 
Basically, which part of this is a bug, and which part is expected
behavior?

From the top level of a built tree, run:

createrepo -q -g Fedora/base/comps.xml -p .

This:

a) puts 'repodata/Fedora/base/comps.xml' in repomd.xml
b) copies Fedora/base/comps.xml to repodata/comps.xml

These two behaviors seem to be at odds - which is right?

a is a bug
b is correct.

what it should be doing is copying the file to repodata
and putting the path in the repodata dir in the repomd.xml file.
