But I have to wonder...for yumdownloader and repoquery to work efficiently it still helps to pull in metadata about the srpm repos during yum runs. Out-of-date srpm information isn't particularly useful. If the magical mirrorlist and metadata caching makes it into the default yum configuration...how expensive does retrieving the srpm metadata become? At the very least I would certaintly want yum makecache to cache all the enabled repos including enabled srpm information. I personally don't think its worth trying to turn the srpm parsing off. Once I enable srpm repos, I benefit more by having the srpm information cached locally in a state that matches the rpm information. What I'm more concerned about is seeing the srpm information and the binary information come from different mirrors which are out of sync with each other. -jef -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
