If you decide to go this route, it's worth bearing in mind that Solaris 11 and FreeBSD 10 both already have tools called "pkg" that perform this function. They are incompatible with yum and dnf, but have a similar-enough command-line that people searching the web for, say, "pkg install" will find information about the wrong one. -- Peter Oliver -- devel mailing list devel@lists.fedoraproject.org https://admin.fedoraproject.org/mailman/listinfo/devel Fedora Code of Conduct: http://fedoraproject.org/code-of-conduct
