A set of things I want to work on as Fedora starts into the F11 cycle.
Things followed by question marks are questionable.
Yum:
- keyword metadata searching/tag browsing
- db to store yum-specific info about packages - barring that rpm doesn't
end up letting us do this?
- merge yum-complete-transaction into yum instead of yum-utils.
- Think about different mechanisms for multiple provider handling:
- James' metadata code
- Optional prompting for selecting providers??
- downgrade?
- repomd.xml signature checking as default
- merge yum-security plugin/update_md functions into base?
- merge in post-transaction-action?
- trusted keys per repo?
Yum-utils:
- clean up package-cleanup code and interface
- add pkg-prov and pkg-dep tree into one program and put in yum-utils
- better docs and examples for repoquery
- verify-tree
- more options so you can disable/enable tests
- have the results be a little more obvious
- verify random other metadata
- specifically check/handle updateinfo and comps md
- verify comps w/relaxng should be less frelling annoying
- remove repo-graph? Does anyone use this?
just thoughts for the moment
