When doing a buildroot override, the newRepo task can take the pre-existing repodata into account when calling createrepo and be done fairly quickly (a few minutes of actual createrepo time). A new custom tag would require creating fresh repodata from scratch which can take an hour or more of actual createrepo time. -- Jesse Keating Fedora -- Freedom² is a feature! identi.ca: http://identi.ca/jkeating -- devel mailing list devel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel
