- util/rpmquery:
* added new methods "is_src", "is_nosrc" to check if the package is
a src rpm or nosrc rpm
* fixed "canonname": this never worked for src- or nosrc rpms
- minor code restructuring
Note:
in order to fetch the cpio archives osc uses "getbinarylist". The
drawback is that "getbinarylist" doesn't generate an ".errors" file
if we're requesting a non-existent filename.
Any directory passed to --prefer-pkgs will be searched for a repodata
directory. If the directory does not contain a repodata directory, then
each ancestor directory is checked. This allows for the user error of
specifying an individual architecture directory (e.g. x86_64) instead of the
parent repository directory that contains the repodata:
repository/
x86_64/
*.rpm
repodata/
*.xml.gz
The use case for this feature is it allows snapshots of the OBS repositories
to be offloaded to an network-attached filesystem. repodata directories are
used as the xml.gz files are faster to read than the 100s of rpms in a given
snapshot. These snapshots are used to track older rpm sets that may be
deployed for testing.
- util/packagequery.py: added vercmp(pkgq) method
- util/debquery.py: currently vercmp(degq) is only a dummy method. The real implementation will follow soon.
* util/packagequery.py: it's used to query a RPM or DEB package. It also contains a
base class for all package types (PackageQuery())
* util/debquery.py: query a DEB package (name, version, release, provides, requires etc.)
- adapted util/rpmquery.py to use PackageQuery() as a base class
- minor changes in util/ar.py
* so far it was only used for querying rpms which can be done with the rpmquery module
- core.py:
* removed data_from_rpm() and tag_to_rpmpy() methods
- util/rpmquery.py:
* added staticmethod "query()"
- commandline.py, fetch.py:
* use rpmquery module instead of rpm-python/data_from_rpm()
* ascii SVR4 no CRC also called "new_ascii"
- no directory/PIPE/blk etc. support atm. Some of it might be implemented later in case I'm bored:)
- format implementation is based on src/copyin.c and src/util.c (see cpio sources)
- it is needed to investigate #477690 ("osc fetching binaries really slow")
