 I would like to propose a test harness program for rpm. I hope can be of
interest.

The points which could be useful:

- rollback mechanisms
- erase erasure
- scriptlet (lua ?)
- run-time probe
- dependency
- TO BE DEFINED .......................

It will not be simple but it is a begin.

What is important is the aim which one  wanted to reach.

I don't know, appart a test harness  for transactional  rollback, if there
have been other contributions or proposal organic in this area.

What do you think about it ?

Too much ambitious ? or Useless ?
