Ah, OK. Yeah, I added new formats and new tags instead.

Hmm, trying to find where this python pickle enters... Did you have an example, I _think_ it's all fixed now ? i.e the generated SQL does load with the Yum schemas, as created by the "yum-metadata-parser" libxml2 code: http://yum.baseurl.org/gitweb?p=yum-metadata-parser.git;a=blob;f=db.c If it was about the "filelists", that was more about dirnames vs. basenames than about Python vs. C afaik. There's still some "file vs. stream" checksum issues lurking in the repomd.xml creation, needing reproducer. --anders ______________________________________________________________________ RPM Package Manager http://rpm5.org Developer Communication List rpm-devel@rpm5.org
