isn't rawhide9, but that doesn't matter ...).

The metadata is not broken, yum is broken.

Seth is the sole reason why we have this situation. The createrepo metadata was not designed with backward compatibility in mind and therefor does not understand the situation where the epoch is unset (which is the case for older distributions).

The metadata DTD (as written, according to Seth anyway), pretty much requires it.
