I will change kiwi to use a shared cache if the package manager allows that.
I know smart allows to store the downloaded packages without removal, I think
zypper always removes temporary downloaded data (will talk to the zypper people
too, they should provide an option with zypper too)
the solution will use the package manager cache in /var/cache/kiwi/<manager>.
<manager> will be either smart or zypper. Talking about smart you will see
among other data /var/cache/kiwi/smart/packages and this information is
re-used if another build needs the same package again
according to this change the locking of simultaneous builds will change too.
According to the change it is not allowed to use the cache while it is in
use for a kiwi prepare or upgrade process.
All this will be part of v2.66
