Hello, I'm new to the list, but not new to using createrepo and yum for repo
creation.

I'm looking to find if there are not patches out there to add an option to
calling for lzma or xz compression of the metafiles instead of gzip. I have
seen  what opensuse uses to compress the primary.xml in conjunction with the
gzip compression and I have extended on it to compress the other and
filelists files too, but they don't really add clean functionality.

Regards,
Matthew Dawkins
