The Red Carpet Library (libredcarpet) provides package management interfaces and associated functionality for RPM and DPKG based systems. This version is used by the Red Carpet Daemon (rcd). ABOUT LIBREDCARPET ------------------ libredcarpet is the library that provides core functionality to the Red Carpet Daemon. libredcarpet provides a limited package manager abstraction, a dependency resolver, and various structures and utility functions for manipulating them. Programs that use libredcarpet will run on systems with RPM, from version 3.0.3 to 4.0.4, as well as Debian-based systems without modification. For the programmer, a common interface is provided to work with both systems. Additional package manager interfaces can be added. Most client programs will probably want to run against the Red Carpet Daemon rather than linking directly to libredcarpet, as rcd provides additional features, such as management of content sources, access control, and so on. DOCUMENTATION ------------- At this point in time, there is no developer documentation for libredcarpet. Currently, the only available resources are the source and header files, and rcd, as sample code. BUILDING AND DEVELOPING ----------------------- Building libredcarpet is tricky. Please see the HACKING file for build instructions. We welcome contributors to libredcarpet. Please see the HACKING file for more info on contributing. LIBREDCARPET PROGRAMS --------------------- If you actually want to see libredcarpet do something, you probably want to take a look at the Red Carpet Daemon. Check out the "rcd" module from GNOME CVS or wherever you got libredcarpet.
