Hi,

Ehh? No, it isn't. I never understood the use of the word 'transaction'
in libzypp (or "an item transacts", which gives me even more creeps). A

Pool is used to build a transaction.

Transaction is the collection of packages to be installed/deleted,
giving you a new system content.

That's what I thought then. It's strange to call this "transaction", but
let's ignore this. It's certainly wrong then to call the pool
transaction, though, and only adds more confusion.


Ciao,
Michael.
