From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.2) Gecko/20040809 Description of problem: Since yum 2.1 removed yum-arch, we need something in the distro capable of generating repositories for both yum and up2date. Adding createrepo is probably a must, but it would be nice to be able to still create repositories for yum 2.0 and older versions of up2date, so packaging yum-arch separately would be desirable. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): yum-2.1.0-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.yum-arch 2.createrepo Actual Results: bash: yum-arch: command not found bash: createrepo: command not found Expected Results: At least the latter should be available. Additional info:
I, for one, want the ability to run yum-arch to create backward-compatible repos on an FC3 host. If FC3 ultimately can't do that, then it's not a showstopper IMO, but it would be *real* nice if it could.
Working on standalone/2.1 yum-arch with UPSTREAM development. Have test package locally working and yum-arch and yum-arch -d -s work fine.
createrepo should be built into rawhide
Closing for createrepo, awaiting upstream for old repo generation
