Contrary to my previous email, removing the double slashes has no effect
on the sync problem. It seems that occasionally a sync will complete, but
the real problem I am having is that the packages are not being updated
correctly. Inspecting the primary.xml file showed that it was indeed being
updated with the new package versions.

In the end I solved it by deleting the repo and re-creating it from
scratch. After a new sync, it appears to work properly.

What a frustrating day...

Now running pulp 2.5.1.
