Beta RC1 contains many noarch RPMs built before the xz endianness problem was fixed. These prevent usable deltaisos from being built on Rawhide. (They can be built on F10/F11 since deltarpm for these versions has no xz support, but are much bigger than they should be as a result. And once F10 goes EOL and F11's deltarpm gets xz support, even this will no longer be possible.) How hard would it be to systematically rebuild all of these? Also, I made the mistake of deleting my 12-Beta-TC ISOs. However, these are still on the alt.fedoraproject.org server at the same time as 12-Beta-RC1. Could someone with access to this server make the deltaisos and put them right on the server, where they belong? It needs to be done on F10/F11, as mentioned above. The syntax is makedeltaiso oldiso newiso deltaiso where makedeltaiso is in the deltaiso package. Your testers will thank you. (OpenSUSE has been doing this for years.) They should be around 10-15% of the full ISO size, which even though bigger than necessary, is still well worth it.
