Another one from the Fora:

Thread started by robertsong: centos 5.3 glibc debuginfo is not updated "Hello, I have updated to centos 5.3, the latest version of glibc-2.5-34. but I found the debuginfo rpm package was not updated to this version. Now the debuginfo version is 2.5.24 in http://debuginfo.centos.org/5/i386/. glibc-debuginfo-2.5-24.i686.rpm glibc-debuginfo-common-2.5-24.i386.rpm
When would the rpm be updated ?"
In investigating this I noticed that the Forum user is correct and that the metadata in the arch-specific directories is even older than the packages. Those ought to be either re-generated or removed.

I reviewed recent debuginfo threads and could not find anything on this issue. I presume the repo config should be something like:
#Debug Info [debuginfo] name=CentOS-$releasever - DebugInfo #baseurl=http://debuginfo.centos.org/$releasever/$basearch/ baseurl=http://debuginfo.centos.org/$releasever/ gpgcheck=1 enabled=0 gpgkey=http://mirror.centos.org/centos/RPM-GPG-KEY-CentOS-$releasever protect=1 priority=1
Is there a mirrorlist mechanism for debuginfo?
