The rsync based crawler has two excludes hardcoded:
cmd = "rsync --temp-dir=/tmp -r --exclude=.snapshot --exclude='*.~tmp~'"
I am just in discussions with a new mirror and the rsync based crawler
fails there with:
rsync: opendir "/lost+found" (in epel) failed: Permission denied (13)
To avoid this in this case and also on other mirrors I would like to
apply following patch:
diff --git a/roles/mirrormanager/frontend2/templates/mirrormanager2.cfg b/roles/mirrormanager/frontend2/templates/mirrormanager2.cfg
index 2bdd60273..69c930b23 100644

This excludes 'lost+found' from being scanned on all hosts. Can I get two +1
to update the crawler's configuration?
