I removed the files in /tmp and that solved the problem - thanks.

Going back to my own repository though, I ran into the same problem
again. I have a work around using a strange directory structure for my
repository as follows:

~/i386
~/i386/repodata
~/i386/Fedora
~/386/Fedora/RPMS
~/386/Fedora/RPMS/repodata
~/386/Fedora/RPMS/Fedora
~/386/Fedora/RPMS/Fedora/RPMS

Where ~/ is /home/myuser

The RPMs are actually in both RPMS directories. This is obvious not the
way it should be, but with a normal repository structure I could not get
kadischi to find the files.
