So I looked in the database rpminfo table for termcap and did see the 
dbb204 hash.  I changed it to the 586d65 hash just to see if it would now 
match. I reran the build.  Now it gets the "rpm" hash right but the 
database is wrong.  How do I resync the repodata from my external 
repository?  I have done way too many regen-repo in an attempt to fix 
this.
