In RHCOS, we ship kernel development-related packages as an extension. Those aren't really extensions that are meant to be layered onto the host. They're meant to be used in a build environment somewhere to compile kernel modules. This makes it very different from "OS extensions" in at least two drastic ways: 1. we don't want to do any depsolving (e.g. we don't want to pull in `gcc` or something) 2. some of those packages may be present in the base already, but we still want to redownload them Hesitated putting this functionality in rpm-ostree, but I think in the end it cuts from the benefit of moving this code to rpm-ostree if we can't entirely get rid of the Python script it obsoletes. Plus, being able to use the `match-base-evr` is still really useful for this use case. Let's add a new `kind` key to support this. The traditional extensions are called "OS extensions" and these new extensions are called "development extensions". The latter is not yet part of the state checksum, so change detection doesn't work there. I think that's fine for now though because the primary use case is the kernel, and there we want to match the base version. So if the kernel changes, the base would change too. (Though there's the corner case of adding a new package to the list while at the same version...) |

rpm-ostree: A true hybrid image/package system
rpm-ostree is a hybrid image/package system. It combines libostree as a base image format, and accepts RPM on both the client and server side, sharing code with the dnf project; specifically libdnf. and thus bringing many of the benefits of both together.
