FYI, I updated createrepo on plague-server (where the repodata is generated) to the version from rawhide and told the push script to pass "--unique-md-filenames" to createrepo for the Fedora free repo. If there are problems please let me know (next push is about to happen in an hour or two); if everything works fine I'll enable it for the other repos (EPEL, nonfree) as well.

Is anybody aware of a fix for this? Brute-force work-around is attached.
