Please apply what is described in
https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=183793 to the repository building
process.

I'm not sure that this is a good idea. Just ask the server, it
should be much more responsive.

It would even be OK if it only were a "half-good" idea.

As Robert states,

  "Generate the list you would get from
   http://drpmsync.opensuse.org:8888/Factory/drpmsync/contents (maybe
   compressed) during the repository build process (like INDEX.gz). If
   this was done I could easily change my client to run as a drpmsync
   client _without_ the need of a drpmsync server at all."

I really cannot see why this should not be done.

If you are thinking "not necessary" try to see it as a "very much welcomed addition".

Besides the "responsiveness" aspect there also is the "bandwidth" aspect.

Cheers -e
