Looks like the master server was being updated while primary mirror was pulling:

There are usually ways to avoid this but the exact solution depends on who is doing what. For example we try to protect users and secondary mirrors when rsync-ing from the master server to the primary mirror by specifying --temp-dir= and --delay-updates.

Hi Mike,
yes, i have noticed such files as well. When synchronizing from the François RPM packages repository to the primary archive, I use rsync with --delete-after --delay-updates options precisely to prevent these temporary files.
The problem is probably with the source - the RPM packages repository. I assume that these files are visible there during synchronization from the François builder to the RPM packages repository.
There are probably two possible solutions: Either François modifies his sync script to use rsync with --delay-updates option, or I add --exclude with a mask to files that start with a dot and end with "some six characters after the dot".
Cheers
