Just signed up - expect me to make a pest of myself.
Again, go to rpm-devel.colug.net and there is an in progress version of
Max RPM from cvs there.
All I see is the CVS snapshot, and in so far as I can tell the section on librpm
is still out of date. Is there an anoncvs server to get the lastest and greatest?
Given a process running as non-root, how can I have that process determine a
desired transaction set and communicate it to a root process (which will do the
actual application)?
That question is as I understand it outside the scope of librpm. The
Obviously the actual user to root communications would be up to me to design.
However, I see no way of portably (in a cross-process sense) describing a
transaction set - as far as I have been able to tell, there is no way I can say
"OK, I need to remove this RPM from the system - that is database entry 1024."
All I have is a pointer to a memory structure that I cannot even be sure I could
share via shmem - unless there IS a way to extract that info and I am just not
seeing it.
