Description

I had 2 repos failing to sync becuase of metadata corruption. With the help of the community I was able to force the removal of the metadata via pulp:

pulp-admin -u admin -p $pulpAdminPassword rpm repo content metafile --repo-id=XXXXX
pulp-admin -u admin -p $pulpAdminPassword rpm repo remove metafile --repo-id=XXXXX --str-eq="checksum=YYYY"

That fixed the problem. Maybe you can add the option in the advanced sync action either as a checkbox or as part of the "Validate Content Sync".
Regards

I hate to add a UI option to fix a bug in pulp that has not been identified, however I've seen many users hit this and it is very annoying to recover from. Will think about this for a bit.
