Hi,

I've just looked at reposync.py code a I don't see any part related to getting 
include/exclude filters from database as properties of repositories that Jan 
asked me when i've submited  some code for filters (he said that he didn't like 
that filters are specified at runtime).

Any news on it ?
If, you decide to store filters in database, these will be accessible through 
repositories webui ?

Regards.

Baptiste

Ok, i know that my solution don't care about include/exclude order and can't do 
this, but i can take a look on it

Yes, i haven't found many resources on it, i did the best i could to use yum 
dependency resolver

Yes, in the patch that I've submitted, include/exclude is in repository scope: 
only excluded packages from current repository are deleted
