Re "reliable":
There is an issue that shows up with
rpm -Va --nofiles
that I am looking at.
Dunno what I broke, I'm bisecting now. The Bloom filter
replacement for dbiPrune() is pending until I get the
issue fixed.
There's also a far deeper issue with fingerprints
and shared files from code that I've ripped out before re-implementing.
You likely won't notice or care because current *.rpm packages
almost never share files. The behavior for shared
files should be LIFO for now.
