Why two lines for every package? Seems like we should be able to just have the retrieving when it starts (and no newline) and then "OK" when it completes.

What does debuglevel of 3 vs 2 give you? 2 is the default with yum, and I don't really know that making it higher for livecd-tools makes sense. It probably does, though, make sense to think about a --quiet and --verbose as we get more things which output more.

Mainly because that creates the assumption that it will be the only function showing output during that time.

This change should probably not be included; I don't remember now why I did that.
Anyways, this patch isn't really important; the only one I actually care about is the caching patch.
FWIW, this would really help troubleshooting.

I think there is a missing boot option on Live media created by livecd-creator: boot from the system default bootloader. Since the Live media (CDROM or USB key) created from livecd-creator is not ejected when the system is restarted or shut down, the user needs to remove it immediately after the system starts up if he doesn't to boot from the live media. The option to boot from the system default bootloader would be a nice addition for advanced users.

At least for x86, it should be easy enough to add localboot. It can't necessarily be guaranteed to work as there's dependencies on the BIOS not being broken, but we do it for the boot CDs.
Can you file something in bugzilla and I'll take a look into it?
