Re: [Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] rpmconstant API should exist in librpm itself (#992)
The problem with "randomly" defined tags is that the lack of consistency means that RPMs can become incompatible with each other, simply by using the same spots in the rpm header for different purposes. I suppose if the tag names were discoverable from the header (e.g. with rpmconstant API), then this would be less of a problem, since we wouldn't rely on fixed addresses for tags in the enum... -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

Re: [Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] rpmconstant API should exist in librpm itself (#992)
I think it would be useful to be able to define "random" RPMTAG_* somewhere from rpm macro so that we don't have to have things like RPMTAG_MODULARITYLABEL in RPM upstream, but rather define it in Fedora/RHEL. And have RPM API to be able to retrieve such values. -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

[Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] rpmconstant API should exist in librpm itself (#992)
Mageia (and Mandriva before it) has had a librpm extension library called [rpmconstant](https://github.com/rpm-software-management/rpmconstant) for a long time now. I am not sure why this functionality does not exist in librpm itself, but it probably should. While I am not proposing the existing rpmconstant code gets merged in (unless we can get it relicensed to LGPLv2+ like the rest of librpm, this is probably a no-go), I think it makes sense that the API it offers is available as part of librpm, effectively obsoleting the rpmconstant project. -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
