If that works. The parser only takes care that getZYpp()->getPartitions() is 
not empty, otherwise it will fallback to try to detect them.

Note: reparsing DU data right now means reparsing the repository. We don't 
support per-file rebuild of cache (now, but it wll be easier to add than 
before).

Depends on how much partitions you have. If you have the 100.000 partitions 
for which our packages.DU file was (over)engineered, it takes infinitum.

For a number of parttions that can be counted with your hand it should take 
just a couple of seconds.
