The attached patch tried to solve that by returning a dict with different
lists of txmbrs. This dict had to be requested by a special param because of
API compatibility. In general I don't like that solution much. We could now
make it the default to return something more meaning full. I also don't like
the idea of returning a dict very much. I currently think about greating a
new result class. This class could also offer methods like .modified(). The
result class should also be suited to be returned from YumBase.install(),
.update(), .remove() and friends. So we would need a way to collapse several
result objects into one.
I don't have any code yet but want to ask what the general attitude towards
such a change is.
+1 to having a class to do it
-1 to a dict
-1 to having a flag for api compat
There's no point in lugging around older detritus, is there?
-sv
Ok, so I am going to commit this as is. We can refine later on. The main
work will be to have a deeper look on what should actually be done with the
results. Right now I yum is just ignoring some of the added txmbrs. We need
to get an idea what to do with them.
