hi what's the current status of deltarpms and presto for centos? i'm just rebuild deltarpms, presto-utils, yum-presto packages from fedora for centos. is there any plan to add them to centos extras? what's the current state? i'm interested about not just using but generating deltarpms enabled repositories. imho it can save a lot's of bandwith for everybody (not to mention if presto will use google's courgette algorithm too). thanks in advance.
FWIW, deltarpm is already in EPEL and I don't mind putting yum-presto there as well (though both would probably be better served in CentOS extras if we want CentOS to use them).
There are currently test CentOS 5.4 repositories with deltarpms at http://lesloueizeh.com/centos5 (though they get updated manually, which means not too frequently).
As for presto and courgette, I'll respond to that at: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=512515
