I have a configured local repo
(/afs/grand.central.org/archive/linuxdev/fedora8/x86_64) with:

kernel-devel-2.6.23.1-42.fc8.x86_64.rpm
kernel-devel-2.6.23.1-49.fc8.x86_64.rpm
kernel-devel-2.6.23.8-63.fc8.x86_64.rpm
kernel-devel-2.6.23.9-85.fc8.x86_64.rpm

My yum.conf includes:
cat /var/lib/mock/fedora-8-x86_64/root/etc/yum.conf
...
[archive]
name=archive
baseurl=file:///afs/grand.central.org/archive/linuxdev/fedora8/x86_64/

The yum command is
 yum --installroot /var/lib/mock/fedora-8-x86_64/root list kernel-devel
I get:
Installed Packages
kernel-devel.x86_64                      2.6.23.9-85.fc8
installed
Available Packages
kernel-devel.x86_64                      2.6.23.1-42.fc8
fedora
kernel-devel.x86_64                      2.6.23.8-63.fc8
archive

2.6.23-1.49 is missing.

I reran createrepo on the archive repo to be absolutely sure it's up to
date. Same output.
