Description Richard W.M. Jones 2015-10-13 13:42:03 UTC
Description of problem:

Bug 1266918 is a flaw in the RPM dependency resolver in supermin5.
Upstream, Pino Toscano rewrote the RPM code to use librpm instead
of running lots of 'rpm' commands.  The effect is that it's much
faster and easier to maintain.

We've been using the new code for over a year in Fedora, and it's
time that we used it in RHEL 7.

The benefits are:

 - much faster
 - proper way to access RPM database

The code changes are not especially substantial.

There is no API or command line change.

Comment 2 Richard W.M. Jones 2016-04-20 14:48:47 UTC
supermin-5.1.15-2.el7 is broken.  I'm uploading a -3 package
which should fix it.

Comment 3 Richard W.M. Jones 2016-04-27 13:52:06 UTC
supermin-5.1.16-1.el7 is uploaded.  This is essentially identical
to the previous 5.1.15-3.el7 package except the version number
has been bumped.
