Good question from MrsB : must we link only the needed binary RPMs, or all those coming from the SRPM ? Example : qt4-database-plugin-sqlite-4.7.3-1.mga1.i586.rpm is needed, will we link all packages from the qt4 SRPM or only qt4-database-plugin- sqlite-4.7.3-1.mga1.i586.rpm ? The first option is probably cleaner, but this means copy much more packages. Best regards Samuel Verschelde
