I mention this because I saw no notice. One day they just disappeared from the repodata and it is curious that the RPMs themselves are still there.
Is there any update on this? Is it broken and will be fixed? Is it intentional and a wontfix?
It is intentional that it has been removed from the metadata as those packages are no longer supported. What is not intentional is that the packages themselves keep re-appearing in the directories in the repo itself. The repodata is correct in not listing them, the fact that they still exist as files is not.
They're unsupported and should have been removed. The fact that you cannot install them as they're missing from the repodata is a good thing. The fact that the packages still exist (even though you cannot install them via yum) is not.
