I was just experimenting with reposync by itself and I ended up with the
same error "Error setting up repositories: Cannot retrieve repository
metadata
(repomd.xml) for repository: Fedora-Rawhide-i386. Please verify its path
and try again"

So now I've trashed my Fedora-Rawhide-i386 repo and all associated cache
and everything and started over with a completely different mirror at
http://mirror.cc.vt.edu/pub/fedora/linux/development/i386/os/

I've named the new repo Rawhide-i386 to make sure it wouldn't conflict
with anything cached. I got this error..

# /usr/bin/reposync -l
--config=/var/www/cobbler/repo_mirror/Rawhide-i386/.origin/Rawhide-i386.
repo --repoid=Rawhide-i386 --download_path=/var/www/cobbler/repo_mirror
-a i686

Error setting up repositories: failure:
repodata/4820e40a2e97cdd499424a2995a925e86f1af3b2465e23ebbaa0d431b4069d2
9-primary.sqlite.bz2 from Rawhide-i386: [Errno 256] No more mirrors to
try.

So then I tried 'wget
http://mirror.cc.vt.edu/pub/fedora/linux/development/i386/os/repodata/48
20e40a2e97cdd499424a2995a925e86f1af3b2465e23ebbaa0d431b4069d29-primary.s
qlite.bz2', which was able to get the file.

Reposync doesn't seem to have any verbose options but it's like it's not
looking in the right place for things. Here it got the repo xml file,
but it couldn't find the bz2 file?
