We could try asking politely, but I dont think they will give us their indexer / engine to use :)
I meant Google search API or Google custom search
How about payload contents ?
Also, perhaps not as a search result, but I think changelog is a good thing to have. eg. being able to do : tell me the changes for whatever package provides /etc/blahblah from what I have now, to whatever is the latest in remote $repo; is worth having. So this could be expanded into something like : show me the overall impact that doing a yum update is going to have on /var/lib/mysuperlibfoo/ ( ok, so I admit its a corner case, but still )
I'm still wondering about the tool because:
1. repoview [1] is too basic 2. rpm2html [2] is deprecated :-( 3. rpm.pbone.net tool is not available for download.
