The problem is that I'm currently using yum's built-in output and modifying the size to be the deltarpm size. I used to put an * by deltarpm'd packages, but found that that can screw up depsolving (because it's actually modifying the package name used in depsolving). What would be great would be if yum's output allowed some kind of comment column that plugins could use (or if it gave more freedom over changing the display name of the package). Thoughts, comments?
