Work-in-progress
|
|
----------------
|
|
- fix the argv const-impedance all around
|
|
- unleash the const monsters from rpmdb/header* and deal with 'em
|
|
- audit the rest of the API for const sanity
|
|
|
|
4.5 and beyond
|
|
--------------
|
|
Janitorial work:
|
|
- clean up old junk like workarounds of -95 era (g)libc bugs etc
|
|
- use glib/glibc (string manipulation, memory handling etc) facilities instead
|
|
of internal versions from -95 era
|
|
- audit and clean up user visible strings
|
|
- clean up the build process (auto*-stuff, compiler warnings)
|
|
- audit int_32 vs uint_32 etc sanity in the interfaces
|
|
- have "make check" do something useful (use James' test-harness?)
|
|
- use mkstemp() instead of mktemp() everywhere
|
|
- refactor those 800+ line monster functions into something more digestable
|
|
- review, update included README, INSTALL etc docs
|
|
- uninternationalize RPMMESS_DEBUG strings to ease translator work
|
|
- macroize hardcoded directories like docDirs
|
|
- get rid of static "1024 entries is enough for everybody" buffers
|
|
|
|
General:
|
|
- bdb related improvements like add stale lock detection etc
|
|
|
|
API:
|
|
- proper separation of exported and private headers to clean up the API
|
|
- package verification API (instead of just printing out letters)
|
|
- proper package build API (python)
|
|
- proper separation of rpm-cli and lib functionality
|
|
- eliminate need for headerGetEntry() where it makes sense (eg changelogs)
|
|
- provide compat headers for renamed APIs and structures
|
|
|
|
Build:
|
|
- grammar for specfiles, rpm macros
|
|
- support adding dep handlers per file type/class/extension without patching rpm
|
|
|
|
Python:
|
|
- audit error handling in bindings (eg ts.addInstall() does not report back
|
|
failures from rpmtsAddInstallElement())
|
|
- see if rpmdb can be made to look like pep-0249
