> The release of rpm-5.1.7 is likely pending in the next week or two.
>
> Several important implementations that are ready for release were  
> moved
> into rpm-5.1.6+ this weekend, including
>
>     1) Using PCRE (which is now a MANDATORY build pre-requisite for  
> RPM) to
> 	parse dependency EVR tags and apply tag data validation patterns.
> 	RPM has always been too loose about what is permitted in tag content,
> 	the data validation patterns will help ensure package metadata  
> reliability.
>
>     2) Adding signature support using OpenSSL as well as BeeCrypt  
> and NSS. All
> 	three implementations are now fully supported. I'll finish up the 4th
> 	crypto implementation in RPM, using -lgcrypt, one of these days,  
> mostly because
> 	GCrypt has support for ECDSA.
>
>     3) Adding --needswhat/--whatneeds generalizations of -- 
> whatprovides/--whatrequires.
> 	This is basically a loop over all, not just one, Provides: or  
> Requires:, and
> 	helps identifying, say, "unused packages" quite a bit easier.
>
>     4) Adding an additional tsort relation to guarantee that new  
> packages are installed
> 	before old packages are erased. The additional "install-before- 
> erase" relation
> 	cures a number of flaws installing packages if/when dependency  
> loops are encountered.
>
> Additional bug fixes associated with the above functionality were  
> moved
> from development HEAD to rpm-5.1.6+ as necessary, but there may be  
> other
> desired bug fixes that should also be moved.
>
> Are there any other features or bug fixes that anyone wants added to
> rpm-5.1.7 before release?
>
> Last night's (or tonight's) snapshot should contain the release  
> candidate code.
