Hello Karanbir and Justin,

Thanks for having taken the time to reply to my e-mail.

Regarding openafs, it would be appreciated if more information could be
provided about the solution that has been worked out by the openafs
developers. All I have found so far in the openafs tree is a script
src/packaging/RedHat/mockbuild.pl. However, to me it looks like the only
interaction between that script and yum is that it reads the RPM name
cache built by yum ?

Thanks,

Bart.
