You're right and we're both wrong :D
I got intrigued and downloaded the iso and mounted it. To my surprise there is no ARCHIVES.gz, INDEX.gz or ls-lR.gz. The packages are only listed in the repo files (xml).
Oh! :-o
It was always there. Was. I just looked in the 15.1 iso, and the files are missing as well. Same thing on the 15.0 iso. However, there is a repodata directory with files that have equivalent data, but not easy to read, like ...-susedata.xml.gz, ...-appdata.xml.gz, ...-filelists.xml.gz
The ARCHIVES.gz is present in the 42.3 DVD.
probably removed due to size issues. Recent discussion about what next to remove to meet the dvd iso size.
Could be. Maybe could be placed online, to answer questions like the current one. It breaks the "pin" program partly. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 15.1 x86_64 at Telcontar)
