For Fedora, we need to look at createrepo_c. There was some uncertainty whether e.g. /usr/libexec paths are in primary.xml. It turns out they are *not*, and the whitelist is anything that matches /etc|/usr/lib/sendmail|bin/ [1]. So we have paths like /usr/share/awstats/wwwroot/cgi-bin/awredir.pl and /var/www/moodle/web/admin/tool/recyclebin/classes/base_bin.php (sic!) in primary.xml. It seems that this behaviour is accidental and arbitrary. Adding the list of pattern to primary.xml seems like a good first step. I hope we can later clean up up the patterns to only match '^/usr/s?bin/'...
