would be better spent formally extending `pkgadd` and friends with
features that `rpm` has and `pkgadd` tools don't.
exactly which needed features are those that rpm has that pkgadd does
not ?
if youre taking RFE orders... :)
i dont know about rpm, but i would like to see some of the urmi
features integrated, urpmi is a tool from mandriva ( a redhat
derivative) that can be configured to automatically download packages
from the web or the mandrake cd, it behaves much like apt does
pkgadd http://example.com/stuff/foobar.pkg
pkgadd https://example.com/goodstuff/barfoo.pkg
Both already work in pkgadd.
