Some mirrors do not run linux at all. Other run old distros without yum.
Yet others have a mirroring infrastructure that does not allow for
running commands after syncing....

It's a bit stupid to require data regeneration when the core problem is
it's not in the right place, not that's its wrong (for mirroring
anyway).

Making life easier for mirror people will only lead to more mirrors, and
that's what we want, right ?
