Subject: Computing pkg deps for FC3

Hi all,

I am working a some small script helpers to compute pkg dependencies for FC3.

These script use the new primary.xml file used by latest yum versions, thus requiring a FC tree around 3T3 or newer.

Their use is currently as follows:
. update.sh fetches primary.xml and transforms it into a folder/file hierarchy
. requires.sh computes dependencies for packages arguments

Example:
# ./update.sh
# ./requires.sh grub yum
will return all the package names needed to fullfil grub and yum dependencies.

Still missing is a conversion of package names to file names for retrieving.

These scripts should be made runnable through busybox for eventual slinky integration.

On a side note, could latest slinky build include i82365 pcmcia module?
