DeltaRPM repo and update package

    Hi,

      
      I created a local repo on my server and I want to use DeltaRPM
      packages which I created them. However, I created repo like;
      createrepo . --deltas and this gave me drpm folder. I have a
      mongoose and openkm packages which I built them. Hence, I made
      drpm package like; makedeltarpm openkm-jboss-4.2.3.GA-1.rpm
      openkm-jboss-4.2.3.GA-2.rpm openkm-jboss.drpm 

      
      Although, I copy this package to my local repos drpm folder and
      when I want to make an update, it didn't update it. My distro is
      Scientific Linux 6.0. I installed yum-presto plugin and configure
      it to 100 to update all the time from deltas. Meanwhile, my local
      repo is enabled.

      
      My local repo config at /etc/yum.repos.d/delta.repo;

      [delta]

        name=Delta Test Repo

        baseurl=file:///var/www/delta

        enabled=1

      
      My /etc/yum.conf;

      [main]

        cachedir=/var/cache/yum/$basearch/$releasever

        keepcache=0

        debuglevel=2

        logfile=/var/log/yum.log

        exactarch=1

        obsoletes=1

        gpgcheck=1

        plugins=1

        installonly_limit=3

        
        #  This is the default, if you make this bigger yum won't see if
        the metadata

        # is newer on the remote and so you'll "gain" the bandwidth of
        not having to

        # download the new metadata and "pay" for it by yum not having
        correct

        # information.

        #  It is esp. important, to have correct metadata, for
        distributions like

        # Fedora which don't keep old packages around. If you don't like
        this checking

        # interupting your command line usage, it's much better to have
        something

        # manually check the metadata once an hour (yum-updatesd will do
        this).

        # metadata_expire=90m

        
        # PUT YOUR REPOS HERE OR IN separate files named file.repo

        # in /etc/yum.repos.d

    
    My presto at
      /etc/yum/pluginconf.d/presto.conf;

      # Please go to https://fedorahosted.org/presto
        for a list of presto-enabled

        # repositories

        
        [main]

        enabled=1

        # This defaults to yum's keepcache option, if not set.

        # keepdeltas = false

        
        #  This lets you change if the delta is downloaded given it's
        relative size vs.

        # the pkg. Eg. the default:

        #

        minimum_percentage = 100

        #

        # ...means that given a pkg of 100M, a delta of 95M (or less)
        would be

        # downloaded instead but a delta of 96M would be skipped in
        favour of the pkg.

        #  Percentage of 0 means never use the delta, percentage of 100
        means always

        # use it (assuming the delta is never bigger than the pkg).

    
    What did I make it wrong and what is the true configuration of a
    delta repo for usage?
