I read again my email and i realized that i was really unclear and i did few mistakes (wrote the email too quickly): 1/ you did not erase the Package table, you are only speaking about removing the Package table and i think this is a pretty bad idea. 2/ i continue to think that the usage of yum/apt to grab information on remote nodes is a pretty bad idea at least in medium or large systems (slow and not scalable at all). 3/ you change the way Selector and OPD will work without discussions, i do not think this is reasonable.
Sorry for the mistakes and i will be glad to discuss about any of these points. On Tuesday 30 October 2007, Geoffroy VALLEE wrote: > Wrong.

At least because a key used in Node_Package_Status comes from the > Package table.
