Re: DNF Any testing time-frame?

Would it not be better to work with yum upstream to make the current yum depsolver more modular so you could plugin another libsolv based depsolver, instead of making a fork of yum and starts trashing the current API. There is a lot more to yum, that just solving dependencies. And making a fork there is not fully compatible will put a lot of work on your shoulders :) without the benefit on the work done by yum upstream :) like parallel download etc.

When would it hit rawhide, ballpark?

I can't give a date yet, but following the FESCo approval of the feature I made review requests today:

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=833462
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=833511

Just don't hold your fingers crossed that anyone can use this to replace yum with. Not only that a subset of the full yum functionality is supported (see the thread about 'yum history'), but the plugins API etc. is not ready either.

ATM it is just what it is: an experimental fork of Yum using libsolv inside.
