OK I figgured out the client part. But unfortunately this was the easy part. I still can't figure out, what i'm doing wrong on the server. I tried installing deltarpm package from epel and the newest createrepo package from atrpms (deltarpm from here won't install because it is build against a newer rpm package and I don't like to change the rpm package on my system). But when i run:* createrepo --database --deltas -s sha --oldpackagedirs /dir /dir* i get some obscure python errors, that I can't figure out. I tried the same commandon on an fedora 11 machine wiht the default fedora packages installed and it works without problems. As far as i can see the versions of createrepo on fedora and centos (the atrpms package) are the same. the only different part is the python version, but that shouldn't be the problem, since I looked at the .spec file from createrepo and it only requires python 2.1 and centos has 2.4. Does someone have a newer createrepo rpm package, that works on centos?
