My repomd.xml file for Fedora 16 updates-testing repository none

Description Hedayat Vatankhah 2011-10-22 20:30:29 UTC
Description of problem:
Yum loads comps.xml file rather than comps.xml.gz one, while both of them exists in repomd.xml. 

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
yum-3.4.3-5.fc16.noarch

How reproducible:
Happened now for both fedora and updates-testing repos

Steps to Reproduce:
1. clean yum metadata
2. run yum update or something to force yum to download comps files
  
Actual results:
It starts downloading comps.xml rather than comps.xml.gz

Expected results:
It should select comps.xml.gz to save bandwidth

I'm not able to reproduce this.  "group_gz" is supported since Feb 4, 2008.  Can you provide more details, please?  (e.g. repo url or the repomd.xml file)

This is langpacks directly asking for "groups".
