[Yum-devel] [patch] PackageSackBase.getProvides/getRequires

[Florian Festi]

Hi!

I reworked my new search code a bit and factored it out into single patches. 
I decided to change the interface to:

def getProvides(self, name, flags=None, version=None):
def getRequires(self, name, flags=None, version=None):

to avoid collisions with other methods and to be able to postpone further 
discussions about deprecation and streamlining of the API to next year. 
Although the names are not that nice that's probably the best way to go.

yum-prco_helpers.diff was already posted to the list I just add it here for 
completeness as it is needed by the other patches. The other patches just 
add the both methods to PackageSackBase and its sub classes.

FYI: I moved the searches on the transaction to the 
transactioninfo.TransactionData class where they look much better now. There 
also are .getNewProvides/Requires(), .getOldProvides/Requires() methods with 
are useful at some places in the depsolver. LocalInstall pkgs will also be 
handled within the TransactionData which will keep them in a PackageSack for 
  faster searching (will need "Dynamic Indexes" patch).

Patch will follow as soon as I have divided the changes to transactioninfo 
into 3 different patches. (getProvides, removedmembers, .depends_on->sets)

Comments are welcome.
