gen/ just keeps the (current version of) decompressed metadata, right? Why can't we update the files there? > copy/share our data needs to work out what to replace ???? with. "????" = (old)primary.xml.bz2 + (chain of)primary.xml.delta.bz2 As long as gen/primary.xml satisfies openchecksum, users should not care about "????"... note: if you (in the current Yum) rm primary_db.sqlite.bz2 but keep gen/primary_db.sqlite, we DON'T re-download the compressed file, too. As long as openchecksum matches, nobody should care.. _______________________________________________ Yum-devel mailing list Yum-devel@lists.baseurl.org http://lists.baseurl.org/mailman/listinfo/yum-devel
