+.SH "NAME"
+libsolv-constantids \- fixed Ids for often used strings
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.sp
+Constant Ids are Ids of strings that are often needed\&. They are defined to ease programming and reduce the number of pool_str2id calls\&. The constant Ids are part of the binary ABI of libsolv, a minor version update will only add new constants and not change existing Ids to maintain compatible\&. The on\-disk solv format works does not use the fixed Ids, but instead references the strings, so solv files can still be read when the ABI is broken\&.

+
+
+NAME
+----
+libsolv-constantids - fixed Ids for often used strings
+
+
+DESCRIPTION
+-----------
+Constant Ids are Ids of strings that are often needed. They are defined
+to ease programming and reduce the number of pool_str2id calls. The
+constant Ids are part of the binary ABI of libsolv, a minor version
+update will only add new constants and not change existing Ids to
+maintain compatible. The on-disk solv format works does not use the
+fixed Ids, but instead references the strings, so solv files can still
+be read when the ABI is broken.
+
+
+SPECIAL STRINGS
+---------------
+*ID_EMPTY ""*::
+ The empty string. It will always have Id 1.
+
+*SYSTEM_SYSTEM "system:system"*::

+
+DEPENDENCY IDS
+--------------
+Namespaces are special modifiers that change the meaning of a dependency.
+Namespace dependencies are created with the REL_NAMESPACE flag. To make
+custom namespaces work you have to implement a namespace callback function.
+
+The dependency markers partition the dependency array in two parts with
+different semantics.
+
+*NAMESPACE_INSTALLED "namespace:installed"*::
+ The dependency only selects installed packages.
+
+*NAMESPACE_MODALIAS "namespace:modalias"*::
+ The dependency is a special modalias dependency that matches installed
+ hardware.
+
+*NAMESPACE_SPLITPROVIDES "namespace:splitprovides"*::
+ The dependency is a special splitprovides dependency used to implement
+ updates that include a package split. A splitprovoide dependency contains
+ a filename and a package name, it is matched if a package with the
+ provided package name is installed that contains the filename.
+ This namespace is implemented in libsolv, so you do not need a callback.
+
+*NAMESPACE_LANGUAGE "namespace:language"*::
+ The dependency describes a language. The callback should return true
+ if the language was selected by the user.
+
+*NAMESPACE_FILESYSTEM "namespace:filesystem"*::
+ The dependency describes a filesystem. The callback should return true
+ if the filesystem is needed.
+
+*NAMESPACE_OTHERPROVIDERS "namespace:otherproviders"*::
+ This is a hack to allow self-conflicting packages. It is not needed
+ with current rpm version, so do not use this namespace.
+
+*NAMESPACE_PRODUCTBUDDY "namespace:productbuddy"*::
+ This is a another hack to implement the SUSE product buddy system.
+ Please ignore.
+
+*SOLVABLE_PREREQMARKER "solvable:prereqmarker"*::
+ This marker partitions the normal require dependencies from the
+ prerequires. It is not needed for dependency solving, but it is
+ used by the transaction ordering algorthim when a dependency cycle
+ needs to be broken (non-prereq deps get broken first).
+
+*SOLVABLE_FILEMARKER "solvable:filemarker"*::
+ This marker partitions the package provides dependencies from the
+ synthetic file provides dependencies added by pool_addfileprovides().
+
+
+DATA TYPES
+----------
+Each attribute data is stored with a type, so that the lookup functions
+know how to interpret the data. The following types are available:
+
+*REPOKEY_TYPE_VOID "repokey:type:void"*::

+ the attribute exists or not. Useful to store boolean values.
+
+*REPOKEY_TYPE_CONSTANT "repokey:type:constant"*::
