why can't this be fixed? It affects > 1000 files wasting 3.2GB. And if
I fix it locally I'll be resyncing the bad timestamped packages again.

Here is the breakdown:
    866 download.fedoralegacy.org/fedora/1/os/SRPMS/
    149 download.fedoralegacy.org/fedora/1/updates/i386/
     39 download.fedoralegacy.org/fedora/1/updates/SRPMS/

Please fix this, it's a simple rsync command. :(

Thanks!
