This usually means that the timestamp is different, which suggest either a mirror using the wrong options to "rsync" or you hit it during a sync before the timestamp was fixed (rsync will update the file timestamp after it has sync-ed the contents). Have a look at the time on your local copy of the file, then look at the repodata directory on the mirror and see what the difference is; if it's an hour apart, there's a timezone issue somewhere :o) -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
