We may still do drpms if enough people use them and ask for it.
Ok, granted, I may be biased since I wrote the yum-presto plugin (which has now been merged into yum), but please do create deltarpms once you've done the initial release. I've really appreciated the fact that they were available for CentOS 6, and would love them to continue to be available for CentOS 7.
yes. we are going to do drpms.
I did notice that CentOS 6 did carry far more old drpms than Fedora does; if extra space is an issue, I'd suggest carrying a maximum of 2 drpms per package: release -> current and current-1 -> current.
I was thinking more about something like 5 drpms;
Also, i didnt realise one could do arbitary point in time drpms. I thought it was just --num-deltas XX, and it would generate XX of the latest e:v-r deltas. How does one have createrepo generate $release->current and $current-1 -> $current ?
or is it a case of just generating all of them and rm -f'ing them before push to mirror ?
OK, the updates, extras. and centosplus repos of CentOS 7 now have drpms ... let me know here if there are issues.
