Resistance to Suggests: was quite terrifying to yum developers, and, in fact, is one of the reasons for the rpm fork. > Suggests was really merged in rpm 4.4.3 and AFAIK Fedora/RH didn't go > beyond 4.4.2. > And I don't see RPMSENSE_MISSINGOK or RPMTAG_SUGGESTS* in rpm python > bindings or poldek sources. > Many flags are not defined within python. Easy hacking in python/ rpmmodule.c Meanwhile the value is a problem, as I cannot gurantee that the value is invariant in *.rpm packaging. I'm actively devising a way to include attributes by "missingok" string rather than (1 << 19) value. The suggests tag is likely implicitly available as h['suggests'] even if RPMTAG_SUGGESTS* is not explicitly in rpm-python. ANd what *REALLY* needs doing is to figger a clearly defined semantic, as in WTF is a depsolver supposed to do with Suggests:?!? What dpkg./apt does is print the Suggests: to stdout, not exactly the most useful or powerful semantic. BTW, Enhances: should be renamed to Recommends: I got the name wrong. I don't use apt ;-) 73 de Jeff > > -- > Jakub Bogusz http://qboosh.pl/ > _______________________________________________ > pld-devel-en mailing list > pld-devel-en@lists.pld-linux.org > http://lists.pld-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/pld-devel-en _______________________________________________ pld-devel-en mailing list pld-devel-en@lists.pld-linux.org http://lists.pld-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/pld-devel-en
