This notion has already been out there for some time and we've got a proof-of- concept implementation. However even if the design is accepted and the implementation get finished in both yum and dnf, we are still looking at a long term solution which will not take place any time soon (you first need to have a support in the infrastructure everywhere to utilize this functionality). > I see both yum and dnf downloading large repomd files once the local cache > is considered stale. Yes, but the download only takes place once a week instead of every single day.
