mash fails for me with x86_64.

[Steve Traylen]

Hi,

 On F10. i.e
 mash-0.4.2-3.fc10.noarch
 createrepo-0.9.6-3.fc10.noarch
 yum-3.2.21-2.fc10.noarch

 I want to build a repo out of a koji-tag containing packages built
against centos4.

 mash -c etc/mash.conf -o out centos4

 Mash gives an error

 File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/yum/yumRepo.py", line 1305, in
<lambda>
    repoXML = property(fget=lambda self: self._getRepoXML(),
  File "/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/yum/yumRepo.py", line 1301,
in _getRepoXML
    raise Errors.RepoError, msg
yum.Errors.RepoError: Cannot retrieve repository metadata (repomd.xml)
for repository: centos4-x86_64. Please verify its path and try again

my centos4.conf contains

[centos4]
rpm_path = %(arch)s/
repodata_path = %(arch)s/
source_path = SRPMS
debuginfo = Falsea
multilib = True
multilib_method = devel
tag = dist-centos4
inherit = True
strict_keys = False
arches =  x86_64

with only arches = i386 all is well , with arches = x86_64 or both it fails
as above.
It looks very similar to
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=350391
but that was fixed and released some time ago.

Any ideas?
