It is a hidden default that is not in any man page or documentation.
Yes, I used a poor choice of words.
The problem is, that people keep hiding the configuration, even you just
did it.

Please put
deltarpm=1
in /etc/yum.conf, at a minimum. A comment about it would be better.
It would be even better if you put
deltarpm=0
for the arm builds.

All I'm asking, if this is going to be the default, make it easier for
people to find the configuration so they can change it.
