    Description

      Rpm does not record repository information. This information is recorded in dnf. Claircore's rpm indexer should consult the dnf database when possible. This should provide more information for to the repository heuristic to make more accurate associations.

      One forseeable problem is the migration from dnf v3/v4 to dnf5. The database schema is the same, but with different magic constants. This would require more investigation to future-proof.

      Dnf supplanted yum – support for yum's database can be added later, if needed.

          • Normal - To be worked after urgent and high priorities are resolved. This term is chosen when the severity of an issue is relatively close to the level of effort to fix it. The existence of an easily implemented workaround can also lead to this priority level instead of a higher priority.
