If you want to add "options" (like the list command) for installed/available/langs/whatever ... feel free to post them. > I think resolving the above would improve yum UX, and remove > or reduce the need to wrap yumcommands.py at the same time. It's just better design to not be parsing the output, and we can do a lot of optimisations (like the repolist code in this helper) ... and it doesn't tempt people outside of yum to do that too ... but improving the UX can also be done at the same time :). _______________________________________________ Yum-devel mailing list Yum-devel@lists.baseurl.org http://lists.baseurl.org/mailman/listinfo/yum-devel
