I.e. We only make delta ISOs to update, like openSUSE BETA1->BETA2.
That's not true. deltarpms are also used for patches to released products. And deltarpm is also one core of our mirroring structure, drpmsync. Valent: you might want to wait until Thursday, where our deltarpm author returns from vacation. Otherwise state specific questions and we might be able to help. AFAIU it's more a question of procedure, right? Like "how to best built deltarpms?".
I see, that you also have hi-level dependency resolver (yum) integration with deltrarpm, while we have nothing like this for our (zypper).
I don't know what you mean. deltarpms itself have no dependencies. rpms have. deltarpms are merely a mean to efficiently download rpms. A solver doesn't enter the game. Our solver (zypp) is integrated with package management (zypp again), and support deltarpms natively.
Since we only patch DVDs offline,
This is false ...
we don't need dependency resolver integration with deltarpm.
... hence this is irrelevant (and in fact also false). Ciao, Michael. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-packaging+help@opensuse.org
