#6834 Packages randomly do or do not have top-level symlinks in grokmirror manifest
Closed: Fixed Opened by qulogic.

Closed: Fixed
Reopen Issue

I have set my include to rpms/ghc-*. These seem to have symlinks in the top-level, but only a random subset. I do not really know what causes a package to have the symlink or not.

$ ls -d  rpms/ghc-*.git | wc -l
486
$ ls -d  ghc-*.git | wc -l
122

so only a quarter or so are symlinked.

The symlinks where there for compatibility before we had namespaces (rpms/containers/tests/etc).

We plan to drop the all soon... then everything should be under rpm/ with no links.

Sorry for the confusion.
