-SAT-Solver
+Libsolv
+=======
 
-Using a Satisfyability Solver to compute package dependencies.
+This is libsolv, a free package dependency solver using a satisfiability
+algorithm.
 
-See http://idea.opensuse.org/content/ideas/fast-installation-tool
-for the motivation.
+The code is based on two major, but independent, blocks:
 
+ 1. Using a dictionary approach to store and retrieve package and
+    dependency information in a fast and space efficient manner.
 
-This code is based on two major, but independent, blocks
+ 2. Using satisfiability, a well known and researched topic, for
+    resolving package dependencies.
 
-1. Using a dictionary approach to store and retrieve package
-   and dependency information.
-   
-2. Using satisfiability, a well known and researched topic, for
-   computing package dependencies.
+The sat-solver code has been written to aim for the newest packages,
+record the decision tree to provide introspection, and also provides
+the user with suggestions on how to deal with unsolvable
+problems. It also takes advantage of repository storage to
+minimize memory usage.
 
+Supported package formats:
 
-Google for 'sat solver' to get links to the theory behind it.
-http://del.icio.us/kkaempf/solver gives a collection of bookmarks
-related to this topic.
+  - rpm/rpm5
+  - deb
+  - arch linux
+  - haiku
 
-Some research papers are in doc/pdf.
+Supported repository formats:
 
-Everything else is below doc.
