Is it considered less safe, or is there another reason that the default createrepo_flags for repositories include "-c cache" but not "--update"? Using --update cuts my reposync time dramatically for RHEL5 update channels, and I'd imagine that most users would derive similar benefit.
No reason at all, that seems like a wise improvement (need to do a quick check to make sure that option is available on EL4 to see if we need to code around that, but shouldn't be).
