Additionally createrepo_c API could be used to make it more straight forward. Well, I was thinking of a completely disconnected process. ie, the drpms are created compltely seperately from the main repo and a prestodelta.xml is created there in the seperate repo. > However you are right dnf can't handle that.

If we want to bring drpms back to useful, I think this would probibly be the best way to go. Then we could have some app that creates them async and dnf could use them if available. kevin
