[Yum] Error: requested datatype filelists not available

[Chris Herdt]

What does this error indicate?

Error: requested datatype filelists not available
>

I'm getting this error after adding a new repo and then running yum
makecache:

sudo yum --assumeyes makecache --disablerepo=* --enablerepo=artifactory
>

Full output of the above command is:

Loaded plugins: fastestmirror, langpacks
> artifactory/signature                                    |  475 B
> 00:00
> artifactory/signature                                    |  962 B
> 00:00 !!!
> Loading mirror speeds from cached hostfile
> Error: requested datatype filelists not available
>

(In spite of the error, the repo seems to be working, i.e. I can install
packages from it.)
