Igor is right; we're still making additions to the spec and finding edge cases
we have to handle. At the moment the complexity and requirement that we call
the same code from createrepo and createrepo_c I'm thinking to either make this
a GIR introspectable library we can call from python and C, or just a single
binary we can call from either tool. We're a few months off doing this tho
(although we're getting closer to AppStream 1.0 every day) and having a
seporate package would make it much easier for the people running other repos
for Fedora and RHEL.

Thanks,

Richard
