Description Alexander Todorov 2011-02-26 19:42:29 UTC
Created attachment 481181 [details]
enable/disable createrepo if desired

Description of problem:
This patch against latest git code adds a second 'enabled' parameter under the [createrepo] section. If false (true by default) the _rebuild() function will return immediately. 

This can be useful on a large local repository where metadata is generated via cron when the system is not in use or idle. Currently metadata is regenerated whenever new RPMs are downloaded.

As it's an internal only RFE atm. ... moving to 6.2.

Comment 5 James Antill 2012-06-26 19:35:48 UTC
 Might call it something other than enabled. Also not upstream, but it doesn't seem like a terrible feature (and it's simple).

Comment 13 Valentina Mukhamedzhanova 2016-07-25 14:07:24 UTC
Red Hat Enterprise Linux version 6 is entering the Production 2 phase of its lifetime and this bug doesn't meet the criteria for it, i.e. only high severity issues will be fixed. Please see https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata/ for further information.

Please feel free to open this request against Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7.
