Name        : zif
Product     : Fedora 17
Version     : 0.2.10
Release     : 1.fc17

Summary     : Simple wrapper for rpm and the Fedora package metadata
Description :
Zif is a simple yum-compatible library that provides read-write
access to the rpm database and the Fedora metadata for PackageKit.

Zif is not designed as a replacement to yum, nor to be used by end users.

Update Information:

- New upstream release
- Do not crash if a package does not have a URL set
- Don't use the deprecated sysconfig files that have been removed in F18

- Fix several small memory leaks
- Ignore any fractional part of the timestamp when parsing repomd.xml
- Only read the metadata files from disk if we need to check the contents
- Set the correct basearch for ARM processors
- Store the file checksum in the xattr to speed up checking metadata at startup
- Turn off header validation when loading the rpmdb
