#28 Eliminate dnf dependency
Closed: RESOLVED 6 years ago Opened 6 years ago by ncoghlan.

In additional to making fedmod slower than it needs to be, the current dnf dependency can cause fedmod to fail entirely if there's a glitch in the host system's repo metadata.

The package summary, description, and license metadata should be retrieved directly from the solv metadata that is already being loaded for dependency analysis.


For summary & description, the approach I'm going to take is to not copy any metadata from the underlying SRPMs, and instead just reference those SRPMs by name.

For the license metadata, I'm just going to skip setting it entirely. https://pagure.io/modularity/fedmod/issue/65 then follows up to ask if that's even a problem we need to solve, or if we can leave it to the module build system to sort out.
