This is libsolv, a free package dependency solver using a satisfiability algorihtm. This code is based on two major, but independent, blocks: 1. Using a dictionary approach to store and retrieve package and dependency information. 2. Using satisfiability, a well known and researched topic, for resolving package dependencies. Google for 'sat solver' to get links to the theory behind it. Requires: cmake 2.4.x mkdir build cd build cmake .. make To create a package: make srcpackage see package/
