It would depend what messages you are seeing.

 From your logs, it appears that createrepo isn't present on your 
installation.  Previously this was not a requirement (for instance,
cobbler might be installed on EL 4?) though it should be.  What OS are 
you importing from?

FYI, you can do "cobbler distro remove --name=foo --recursive" to 
achieve the same effect as the two (or more) removes.

The import might also be unhappy because you still have content in 
/var/www/cobbler/ks_mirror corresponding to the previous import.

Ideally, I'd say retest this on 1.4.0 though the likelihood of the 
importer of having changed much is pretty low.
