Ok. We have disabled generation of hdlist.cz in ABF repositories and removed existing files. During the day, these changes should be picked up by all mirrors. Please report us if you find any issues.

For me you can kill it with fire. Currently urpmi and friends do have support for hdlist.cz <http://hdlist.cz> but as you have written it is not used anymore for like 7 years.

    Hi all,

    As many of you can likely notice, package publishing in ABF
    usually takes relatively significant time - about several minutes
    (sometimes up to 10 minutes).

    One of the time-consuming tasks in the publishing is generation of
    hdlist.cz <http://hdlist.cz> file - this is a huge file containing
    internal urpm representation of metadata, including file lists,
    package descriptions, etc. This file seems to be redundant -
    nowadays we generate additional xml files (changelog.xml,
    info.xml, etc.) which in combination with lightweight
    synthesis.hdlist.cz <http://synthesis.hdlist.cz> provide the same
    information. However, I am not so familiar with hdlist.cz
    <http://hdlist.cz> and can't guarantee that nothing will be lost
    if we completely drop it.

    So the question is - can somebody say what will we lost (if any)
    if we drop hdlist.cz <http://hdlist.cz> files? Or maybe we should
    just try and see?
