IMHO, the use of hash values by pkg(5) should be kept as an implementation detail and shouldn't show up in the interface (publishing or client) at all.
The client checks for differences and retrieves files by hash, so the repo and client interfaces must be aware of hashes. Using a hash to exactly specify a file is a core part of the design of pkg(5), not an implementation detail. - Bart -- Bart Smaalders Solaris Kernel Performance [email protected] http://blogs.sun.com/barts "You will contribute more with mercurial than with thunderbird." _______________________________________________ pkg-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://mail.opensolaris.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-discuss
