I won't disagree that I should have some error checking around the yum
stuff, but the files in a yum repository are checksummed. If you edit
the file, you have to re-run createrepo against that file to update the
repodata. You've created corrupt repodata, and yum is rightfully
balking on it.
Fair enough. That's not obvious since pungi is going to run
createrepo itself, but I presume that's just against the
selected packets.
In any case, I now understand enough to move forward.
Thanks
