 Building the metadata is only one part of the problem, getting it into

CentOS does it right (or at least well enough that we, users, don't notice). Not wanting to imply anything, except that it's possible :-)

 But I dont see how building the metadata more often would impact the wxGTK
 issue.

Because in my mind this issue and the time needed to actually update the repo are somehow related; see Dag's post about timing:

In the old days I used to build metadata a few times a day. If I screwed something up I could fix it within hours.

Nowadays metadata is generated once a day (it includes dries and fabian his packages), so every fix I want to push is for the next day.
