Please apply what is described in https://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=183793 to the repository building process. After that we can run from a mirror in this mode without the need of the drpmsync server _at all_! And we don't suffer from mirrors that are slightly out of sync because the file will be of the same age as the rest of the repository. Well obviously the latter is not true during the sync of the mirror but during that time a consistent sync cannot be expected with any sync technology. My client at http://pi3.informatik.uni-mannheim.de/~schiele/mydrpmsync/ could do that already if just the repository provided that single file.
