+createrepo : version < 0.4.5 pukes about unknown things (including
+repoview stuff) in repodata dirs - we work around that by moving the
+entire repodata dir to a tmp directory, then run createrepo and restore
+old files unless they would overwrite new files.  createrepo >= 0.4.5 will
+do something similar, but we don't want to run into any of createrepo's
+fatal error conditions (e.g. due to unexpected group file access problems
+or alike), where we would lose repoview'n'stuff in ".olddir".
 
 old yum Python modules : we use a newer/patched local copy (post yum 2.6.1
 with a patched "rpmUtils" and "yum" module), so we have more recent code
