/var/lib/yum/plugins/local is not user-writable, not a createrepo bug. Might be a bug in yum-plugin-local, which should not update the local repo unless packages were installed, implying we run as root. How did you trigger this?

Sadly I do not remember what had triggered the error. Due to some reason abrt showed some problem had occurred and I immediately reported it. Sorry for not being much of a help.
Thanks for the information. It may be a bug in yum-plugin-local, but we'd need a reproducer.
