I have created the repo with the '-s sha' param as such:

$ createrepo -s sha -o . -g repodata/Fedora-10-comps.xml .

and the install (still) works. So i think adding the extra parameter
when creating the repository by default is fine. Maybe it's an idea to
set the extra parameter as default but providing a way to override it on
the commandline?

I just checked and user 'fail' opened ticket #464 which describes
exactly what the problem is, with ticket #463 providing a workaround.
I've added my test results to the ticket.
