Nothing says that in the future, we couldn't handle other kinds.
Fundamentally, libsolv can process rpm-md/yum, susetags/yast2, hdlist2
(mdk), and helix repos. And those are just the RPM repo formats.
libsolv can handle deb/apt, arch repos, and Haiku repos. We don't
really care too much about stuff other than rpm-md for now, but I
don't see why that couldn't change in the future.
