Error: requested datatype filelists not available

What does this error indicate?

Error: requested datatype filelists not available

I'm getting this error after adding a new repo and then running yum makecache:

sudo yum --assumeyes makecache --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=artifactory

Full output of the above command is:

Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks
artifactory/signature                                    |  475 B     00:00    
artifactory/signature                                    |  962 B     00:00 !!!
Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
Error: requested datatype filelists not available

(In spite of the error, the repo seems to be working, i.e. I can install packages from it.)
