Hi all,

Following a report on users@ about not-up-to-date ovirt-release36.rpm
in $subject, I had a look, then did:

# pwd
/var/www/html/pub/yum-repo
# mkdir bck-2016-07-05
# mv ovirt-release36.rpm bck-2016-07-05 && ln -s
../ovirt-3.6/rpm/el7/noarch/ovirt-release36.rpm
# mv ovirt-release36-snapshot.rpm bck-2016-07-05 && ln -s
../ovirt-3.6/rpm/el7/noarch/ovirt-release36-snapshot.rpm
# mv ovirt-release-master.rpm bck-2016-07-05 && ln -s
../ovirt-master-snapshot/rpm/el7/noarch/ovirt-release-master.rpm
# mv ovirt-release40-snapshot.rpm bck-2016-07-05 && ln -s
../ovirt-4.0-snapshot/rpm/el7/noarch/ovirt-release40-snapshot.rpm
# mv ovirt-release40.rpm bck-2016-07-05 && ln -s
../ovirt-4.0/rpm/el7/noarch/ovirt-release40.rpm

# ls -l ovirt-release*

Also, I noticed we have there repodata, i.e. this is a yum repo itself.
If it's indeed used as one anywhere, the above will break it - because
the symlinks will automatically change during releases or nightly
builds, and the repo metadata will not be updated. Is it indeed used?
If so, we should probably do something about this - either revert my
change and have something else that copies the files (and runs
createrepo), or something else that runs createrepo frequently/as
needed.

Best,
