Darix,

 

It's not only to build it 'once' per Repository (anyhow the file will be overwritten as it's noarch, it's just a waste of CPU power) but also the files stored on the disc only once, even while offering the game on severeal repos (10.0, 10.1, Factory, SLED).

 

Otherwise I have the need to put the Data RPM (which is 160MB) in ALL the repos... and I'm just filling the server with almost 1GB like this. I don't thik THAT would be much appreciated.
