Hi!
I've implemented a low-level equivalent of this functionality and commited to
trunk.
#include <y2util/y2changes.h>
This provides 2 functions:
y2useritem(format, args...)
Function to log an item entry (system action) into the user-level action log
y2usernote(format, args...)
Function to log a note entry (additional information) into the user-level
action log
The similar builtins are available for YCP.
The values are written to /var/log/YaST2/y2changes log.
Comments welcome!
