Removing duplicated rpms

[David Caro]

Hi!

Lately we have been having space issues on resources.ovirt.org and I'm working
on a small script to remove duplicated rpms and use hard links instead. But I
have a question:

Do we care if there are signed rpms inside nightly repo or ovirt-node repo? (or
any other repo for that matter), if so, why? Can we just use gpgcheck=0 on the
repo files for those?

I say so because a signed rpm and an unsigned one are different files, and if
you want both, you have to keep both, but if there's no need for that, you can
just remove the unsigned one and create a link to the signed one liberating that
space.

In my tests, I can save around 7GB of space right now. We can add the script as
a cron once a day to maintain the links once ready.
