I didn't look into the details, just read this in the backend porting guide to 0.8.x: "Make your backend is threadsafe, so tasks can be executed in parallel.

Not needed, but good to have to avoid the fork()/exec() and IPC.
Yes, but that's probably easier than making libzypp thread safe if it wasn't designed with that goal in mind. (But maybe it is already thread safe.) M. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-softwaremgmt+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse-softwaremgmt+owner@opensuse.org
