Comment 1 Jeff Ortel 2013-06-20 20:44:09 UTC
I tested createrepo 0.9.9-21 on RHEL 6.4 (which normally has 0.9.9-17) and both createrepo and modifyrepo seem to work okay with yum 3.2.29-40 (instead of 3.4.3-4).  The changelog does not suggest a change that requires yum 3.4.3-4.  Thinking the solution might be to update the Requires: in our deps/createrepo to require yum 3.2.29-40 and run with that.  

I created a repo, modified it with a comps.xml and installed a package from the created and modified repo and installed a package using group install and yum seemed happy.

Comment 2 Jeff Ortel 2013-06-24 14:20:45 UTC
Zdenek Pavlas (zpavlas) has confirmed that YUM API requirements between createrepo 0.9.9-17 (included in RHEL 6.4) and 0.9.9-21 has not changed.  Updating the createrepo.spec to require yum >= 3.2.29-40 in deps/createrepo.
