createrepo_c and DeltaRPMs...

[Neal Gompa]

Hello all,

I don't know if many have actually tried to use createrepo_c to generate
repositories with DeltaRPMs in it, but it hasn't actually been working
(much to my surprise when trying to use the tool for some repositories at
work). So, I filed a bug about it, like any responsible user of Fedora
stuff[0]

At the beginning of the week, I figured out why it wasn't working and made
a fix. That fix is documented in the bug, and in the GitHub repository pull
request[1]. I hoped that it would be in sometime this week, but it isn't
yet. So, I've decided to push the build I've been using locally to Copr[2],
and provide that for those who may need it until createrepo_c has its
DeltaRPM support enabled again.

Hopefully this will be useful to others who want to use createrepo_c and
have DeltaRPMs in their repositories.

Best wishes to all!
