This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle.
Changing version to '19'.

(As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development
cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.)

Comment 1 James Antill 2013-04-15 19:57:59 UTC 
 This is a simple fix, but it's pretty late in 6.5 now and createrepo often doesn't get an update.
Comment 4 Zdeněk Pavlas 2013-05-14 13:09:07 UTC 
Actually, it's a Yum bug.

Comment 5 Karel Srot 2013-05-14 13:40:49 UTC 
Switching to yum component.
Comment 6 RHEL Program Management 2013-10-13 23:42:05 UTC 
This request was evaluated by Red Hat Product Management for
inclusion in the current release of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Because the affected component is not scheduled to be updated
in the current release, Red Hat is unable to address this
request at this time.

Red Hat invites you to ask your support representative to
propose this request, if appropriate, in the next release of
Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
