Re: rpm module for python

[Michael Honeyfield <mhoneyfield xtra co nz>]

Thanks for the repies people. I have looked up yum and going thru it 
now. Also done a bit of googling and found some additional info on the 
python api from this list in the past.

Are there plans to document the api? If so I would gladly help.

Cheers

Mike

It's perfectly fine to use the name of you pet or child as a password.
How ever, for the sake of security, make sure the names of all your pets
and children contain several non-alphanumeric characters.
