Description : openSUSE/SLES package management system library
libzypp is the package management library that powers applications like
YaST, zypper and the openSUSE/SLE implementation of PackageKit.
.
libzypp provides all the functionality for a package manager:
.
- an API for package repository management, supporting most common
repository metadata formats and signed repositories
- an API for solving packages, products, patterns and patches (installation,
removal, update and distribution upgrade operations) dependencies, with
additional features like locking
- an API for commiting the transaction to the system over a rpm target;
supporting deltarpm calculation, media changing and installation order
calculation
- an API for browsing available and installed software, with some facilities
for programs with an user interface
- a suite of maintained solving testcases representing common and uncommon
operations on Linux software management
----------
This library is packaged in order to get obs-build into Debian. The obs-build
tool can be used to build openSUSE/SLES packages in clean chroots.
