Fedora extras metadata

[Bart Vanbrabant]

Hello,

What is going on with fedora extras metadata lately? Every time I run
yum I need to download more then 30megs of metadata before yum finds a
mirror with a valid checksum. It always happens when yum needs to import
the filelists.xml.gz file. It's about 3.2MB in size and it fails most of
the times on +/- 10 mirrors, that's 32MB of data that is wasted. Last
time I updated the 14th mirror was succesfull. It also takes a lot of
time for updates to finish.
