I would like to the the DNF API (python-dnf) to determine the source repository for the packages that are installed on a system. (I am aware that this is not necessarily possible for every package, but it should be possible for the vast majority of packages on an up-to-date system.)
It is straightforward to iterate through the installed packages and search for matching packages in a sack that was filled with fill_sack(load_system_repo=False, load_available_repos=True) -- filtering on either NVRA or NEVRA. If possible, I would like to take the further step of validating that checksum of the installed package matches that of any available packages. However, I'm having trouble figuring out how to do this. It seems that installed packages have only a hdr_chksum attribute while available packages have only a chksum attribute. (Attempting to read the hdr_chksum of an available package or the chksum attribute of an installed packages raises a "No such checksum" AttributeError. Is the NVRA/NEVRA match the best that can be done? -- ======================================================================== Ian Pilcher [email protected] -------- "I grew up before Mark Zuckerberg invented friendship" -------- ======================================================================== _______________________________________________ Rpm-ecosystem mailing list [email protected] http://lists.rpm.org/mailman/listinfo/rpm-ecosystem
