[Pulp-list] rpm distribution not deleted when deleting a repo

Wed May 22 15:53:43 UTC 2019

Distributions can be reused (and updated with a PATCH call versus a POST
which creates a new one). Note for rc2 specifically, because of the
breaking changes with rc2, you'll need to make any Distributions and
Publications new with rc2.

Hopefully this is helpful and not confusing. More questions are welcome!

^ would create a new Distribution because it's a POST
