FYI to all you people who mirror cooker's contribs.
Someone moved contribs.  It used to be in contrib/RPMS and i586
symlinked to that directory.  Now it's in contrib/i586 and RPMS symlinks
to the i586 dir.

It would have been nice if someone at Mandrake had let us know *BEFORE*
making this change.  It would have saved me a 1.3GB re-download of the
stuff I already had.

I'm getting:

receiving file list ... readlink Mandrake/RPMS2/RPMS: Too many levels of symbolic links
done
IO error encountered - skipping file deletion

with the problem being, apparently, an empty RPMS/ directory in Mandrake/RPMS2.
