No idea - clearly the repos are separate so createrepo can be run
independently. I think a much clearer way to do this is something like
below. My mirror script would simplify enormously if each release had
its own tree ... clearly yum, createerepo etc dont care one way or the
other.
fedora/11
source
...
i686
release
debug
os
updates
...
x86_64
release
debug
os
updates
...
...
