Should "koji regen-repo" be necessary?

[John Florian]

I'm relatively new to Koji and my setup works very well, until it doesn't.  A recurring theme is that the buildroot sometimes cannot be populated.  Today's example:

DEBUG util.py:388:  Transaction Summary
DEBUG util.py:388:  ================================================================================
DEBUG util.py:388:  Install  11 Packages (+174 Dependent packages)
DEBUG util.py:388:  Total download size: 104 M
DEBUG util.py:388:  Installed size: 429 M
DEBUG util.py:388:  http://our-local-mirror-host /pub/fedora/updates/21/i386/p/perl-Encode-2.72-1.fc21.i686.rpm: [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404 - Not Found
DEBUG util.py:388:  Trying other mirror.
DEBUG util.py:388:  Error downloading packages:
DEBUG util.py:388:    1:perl-Encode-2.72-1.fc21.i686: failed to retrieve perl-Encode-2.72-1.fc21.i686.rpm from build
DEBUG util.py:388:  error was [Errno 14] HTTP Error 404 - Not Found
DEBUG util.py:499:  Child return code was: 1
DEBUG util.py:183:  kill orphans

When this happens I can regen-repo and then resubmit the build and everything will be fine.  Is this normal?  I was kind of under the impression that kojira maybe took care of this kind of thing, but the documentation vacuum leaves one to wonder quite a bit.
