When I tried to install it, rpm complained that there was no such filename or directory, so I created /usr/share/createrepo and it installed normally. When I did yum makecache yesterday, it ran through a cycle of the install from sites information, then cycled again through the list, then cycled again!... so I ctrl c'd. What was going on? The first mirror was down and yum selected an alternate, then the cycling began.
