Hi All,
Script here:
http://linux.duke.edu/~skvidal/metadata/rpm-md-dump.py
takes a baseurl as the first arg and a list of rpms.
output file is here:
http://linux.duke.edu/~skvidal/metadata/rpm-metadata4.xml
I've kept deps, prov, conf, obs, inside <format> b/c it seems cleaner
and I buried <entry> inside the rpm ns.
I like the idea of having the multiple namespaces b/c then if someone
wants to add a pkg format in we might have to shuffle less around in the
common namespace specification.
comments/hatemail etc.
if I don't hear anything I'll write the parser for this format and add
in the file provides for the lists of files we think are useful (I think
we listed those earlier [ *bin/*, /etc/*, /usr/lib/sendmail ])
Then work on optional/required sets for the common area.
cool?
