Changelog details in the repoview pages are reverse. Example:

This is because in createrepo/Yum, someone either still plays with sorting
the entries by timestamp (bad, since the timestamp accuracy is not high
enough, they don't contain h:m:s!) or running reverse() on them at least
once. If they are reverse() in the repo metadata, any tools that read the
changelog entries need to run reverse() once more to fix the order. That
is bad, too. Currently, oldest %changelog is at the top in the "other"
metadata.
Yum upstream tickets #6 and #7 fix such issues, which also mess up
repodiff in the daily Rawhide report. Unfortunately, ticket activity has
stalled.
If anyone knows how to help here, that would be appreciated.
Ping ?
Any eta for that fix ?
