I think it would be cool if the operating system basically had a big key-value cache, that would be automatically purged as system space ran low. So various tools could stuff rpm SHA1->rpm into there. Maybe you could even do this just using a filesystem interface say /var/cache/objects. You don't really need yum instances and livecd-creator etc. to share say the sqlite db downloads (though that would be nice); the big part is the RPMs. -- Fedora-livecd-list mailing list [email protected] https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-livecd-list
