I'd still recommend not suggesting the usage of the legacy createrepo
(though I don't know why we haven't just made createrepo_c replace it
already...). The older createrepo has known issues with how it
generates metadata. createrepo_c is available via EPEL, so you can use
it with EL6 or EL7. And of course, it's available on Mageia 6 and
later and openSUSE Leap 42.2 and later.
