Description

The change seems trivial but I am not sure (because I don't know where and how buildinstall is used) about the assumption that createrepo is needed to be called only when --pkgorder is used. Can you just assure me that it is so? (Dan Mach thinks that wrt to the usage of buildinstall, not running createrepo shouldn't break anything.) I'm not a buildinstall expert, but my comment about createrepo was based on a scan of the sources, so I am fairly confident in it. It's also something that we can test easily once we have a build with the change. Modified, will be included in 11.1.2.150. Dennis, can you confirm that everything is working as expected and the changes reduced compose time? Thanks. Yes, it appears that the changes worked. Below are the times (in seconds) that the buildinstall runs took before and after the change.
