Also an interesting discussion to have is the same we had for maven cache files.

We use reposync in lago that is supposed to sync repos locally and then it can update the existing cache to match the remote mirror when it is invoked, then as I understand we get its cache deleted each time because we use mock.

Now I am not sure do we really need mock in ovirt system tests? As I understand it uses lago and lago runs everything inside vms so it is somehow isolated already?

Looks like the sqlite index file got replaced while our test is running.
We'll probably have to mirror to be resilient to this (Proxy cannot
help you with something it did not proxy yet).
One thing to note is that simple rsync mirror will not be enough, we
will need a mirror system that will make _atomic_ updates to the
mirror. Rsync will just make it behave like DS globalsync behaves.
