Re: [Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] RFE: Finer-grained symbol dependencies (#362)
@pmatilai So what do you mean by too clever? Actually, I've been thinking about splitting the implementation into a few pieces, each doing only one thing. So how about this API: [rpmss.h](https://github.com/svpv/rpmss/blob/master/rpmss.h)? Does it look more sensible? (The implementation is still a bit of a mess, but if we could agree on the API...) -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

Yeah set versions is no doubt clever. Problem is it's too clever for my taste.

Re: [Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] RFE: Finer-grained symbol dependencies (#362)
@miscroe: describing set versions as a "probabilistic method" with it a "small chance" of failure does not jibe with my understanding of the implementation. Please supply reasoning and a reproducer. AFAIK set versions is a clever (and faithful, no probabilistic operations) encoding of a set of symbol strings, whose only failure mode is through misuse, not intrinsic to the set versions implementation. -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.

Re: [Rpm-maint] [rpm-software-management/rpm] RFE: Finer-grained symbol dependencies (#362)
No, the point of set-versions is that you only have one provides/requires for all of the symbols. This means that it's a somewhat probabilistic method, there's some small chance it will not detect a missing symbol. -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
