When I look at the actual rpms at http://mirrors.mit.edu/epel/7/x86_64/, I see many of them designating x86_64 and many noarch. I obviously do not want to install rpms specifically tagged x86_64; I would think.
So I want to download only those rpms including the string noarch and do my own createrepo for now. I don't see any rsync mirrors, only http for epel7. So I can't try using rsync to get just the noarch rpms. I tried wget, but I can't figure out a wget command that will walk the tree and and get just the noarch.rpm.
I am still working on it, but if anyone can supply me with the command to fetch all the noarch.rpms I will get started on this.
you need to use -A. See https://www.gnu.org/software/wget/manual/html_node/Types-of-Files.html
