It would help if this information were included in the yum documentation, say in man yum, or the message about deprecation in yum-arch, or -- better -- in both. Two other data. * createrepo installs nicely in a current FC1 installation. * Since createrepo and yum-arch create their data in different directories, it is harmless to execute both.
