Retrieving a single flat file/db (e.g. in pickle format) has the advantage that it is a single point of failure only. If the operation fails, scripts can terminate early. On the contrary, if for each in a set of packages the database must be queried separately, this needs a lot more error condition handling to consider temporary unavailability of the service or network. That creates overhead for small helper scripts. -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
