Repository RPM's Broken?

Hello,

With regard to the deployment RPM's available here:

The RHEL6 RPM for the unstable branch ( http://yum.opennms.org/repofiles/opennms-repo-unstable-rhel6.noarch.rpm ) installs repository definitions with the following paths:

  http://yum.opennms.org/common/common
  http://yum.opennms.org/unstable/common
  http://yum.opennms.org/unstable/rhel6

It seems that /common/common/ is unavailable, or has been retired.  Is this temporary, or is there a new URL to be used?

Additionally, something I had not noticed before is that the /unstable/common repository is defined twice:

/etc/yum.repos.d/opennms-unstable-common.repo:
  [opennms-unstable-common]
  name=RPMs Common to All OpenNMS Architectures RPMs (unstable)
  baseurl=http://yum.opennms.org/unstable/common
  failovermethod=roundrobin
  gpgcheck=1
  gpgkey=http://yum.opennms.org/OPENNMS-GPG-KEY

/etc/yum.repos.d/opennms-unstable-rhel6.repo:
  [opennms-unstable-common]
  name=RPMs Common to All OpenNMS Architectures (unstable)
  baseurl=http://yum.opennms.org/unstable/common
  failovermethod=roundrobin
  gpgcheck=1
  gpgkey=file:///etc/yum.repos.d/OPENNMS-GPG-KEY

Finally, some repositories use a GPG key delivered over HTTP instead of the locally installed one.  This is quite a bad idea.

While I haven't extensively checked the rest of the RPM's, the RHEL5-unstable RPM seems to be exhibiting the same issues.
