Because that will overtime potentially generate something that is different than the original srpm, unless we plan on freezing the machines that do the srpm production and never update rpm on them. It also feels very "hacky" when we can go a far more simplistic route of just hosting the files and using hardlinks to reduce the actual space overhead. -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- All my bits are free, are yours?
