I ment rpm database like "rpm -qia" or so, the locally known system of
installed rpms and dependencies before either yast or apt4rpm are run on
a rpm based system. I didn't mean storages of packages out there, or am I
missunderstanding ypu now? (sorry, born german native speaker, i might
get something wrong by some typo that otherwise would be obvious)

Sounds like 2 fools, 1 thought?

And oh, thanks for the rest ;)
