I had (mistakenly) filed this against infrastructure:
https://fedorahosted.org/fedora-infrastructure/ticket/4798
To summarize: we'd like to run a Fedora mirror in an OpenAFS cell, but the
drpms/ directory is far larger than the 64K slot limit in OpenAFS and, as
a result, cannot mirror them.
We are currently just excluding the drpms, which works, but I'd like to be
able to mirror them if possible.
A couple of possible fixes are mentioned in the discussion on that ticket;
keeping fewer drpms, or organizing the drpms into alphabetical
subdirectories instead of one giant drpms/ directory.
How does rel-eng feel about this? Is this something that could be fixed in
some way or should we merely continue to exclude the drpms?
Thanks in advance.
