# Todo List

Class rpmlead
  Don't use any information from lead.

Class tagMacro
  Should other macros be added from header when installing a package?

File buildio.h
  Eliminate, merge into rpmlib.

Global checkHardLinks
  Only lang coloring is checked, doc et al also need doing.

Global genCpioListAndHeader
  Should directories have doc/config attributes? (#14531)

  Remove RPMTAG_OLDFILENAMES, add dirname/basename instead.

  Parameters:

    | fl | package file tree walk data

Global domd5
  Eliminate, use beecrypt instead.

Global rpmPackageGetEntry
  Eliminate from API.

Global cpio_doio
  Create transaction set *much* earlier.

Global doSetupMacro
  FIXME: Option -q broken when not immediately after setup.

Global alSatisfiesDepend
  Eliminate.

Global unsatisfiedDepend
  Eliminate rpmrc provides.

Global getFilesystemList
  determine rdonly for non-linux file systems.

Global dataLength
  Remove sanity check exit's.

File header.h
  Document version2 headers.

Global rpmReadPackageManifest
  Infinite loops through manifest files exist, operator error for now.

Global mdbinfile
  Eliminate, use beecrypt instead.

Global mdfile
  Eliminate, use beecrypt instead.

Global rpmReadPackageInfo
  Eliminate.

Global psmStage
  Packages w/o files never get a callback, hence don't get displayed on install with -v.

Global rpmVerifyDigest
  Make digest check part of rpmdb iterator.

Global FA_SKIPMULTILIB
  state "multilib" ???.

Global rpmprobFilterFlags_e
  Generalize filter mechanism.

Global rpmVerifyScript
  gnorpm/kpackage prevents static, should be using VERIFY_SCRIPT flag.

Global XrpmdbNextIterator
  Remove debugging entry from the ABI.

Global RPMFILE_DONOTUSE
  (unimplemented) from donotuse.

Global RPMFILE_SPECFILE
  (unnecessary) marks 1st file in srpm.

Global RPMSENSE_SERIAL
  Legacy.

Global RPMSENSE_PREREQ
  Legacy.

Global RPMSENSE_TRIGGERPREIN
  Implement triggerprein.

Global checkSize
  rpmio: use fdSize rather than fstat(2) to get file size.

Global relocateFileList
  multilib file dispositions need to be checked.

Global rpmVerifyScript
  gnorpm/kpackage prevents static, should be using VERIFY_SCRIPT flag.

Global fingerPrint
  Convert to pointer and make abstract.

Global dbiFindByLabel
  Name must be an exact match, as name is a db key.

Global expandMacro
  Dynamically reallocate target buffer.

Global expandMacros
  Eliminate from API.

Global grabArgs
  Use popt rather than getopt to parse args.

Global rpmDefineMacro
  Document.

File rpmerr.h
  Eliminate from API.

Global xrealloc
  Annotate ptr with returned/out.

File rpmmessages.h
  Eliminate from API.

Global pgpHashAlgo_e
  Add SHA256.

Global XurlFree
  Remove debugging entry from the ABI.

Global XurlLink
  Remove debugging entry from the ABI.

Global XurlNew
  Remove debugging entry from the ABI.

Global rpmQueryFlags_e
  Merge rpmQueryFlags, rpmVerifyFlags, and rpmVerifyAttrs?.

Global rpmVerifyFlags_e
  Merge rpmQueryFlags, rpmVerifyFlags, and rpmVerifyAttrs values?.

Global showQueryPackage
  Devise a meaningful return code.

Global rpmQuery
  hack: RPMQV_ALL can pass char ** arglist = NULL, not char * arg. Union?

Global rpmQVSources_e
  Move to rpmcli.h

Global rpmVerifyAttrs_e
  Move to rpmcli.h.

Global rpmVerifyFile
  gnorpm and python bindings prevent this from being static.

Global rpmInstallInterfaceFlags_e
  Move to rpmcli.h

Global rpmInstall
  Generalize --freshen policies.

Global transactionSetHeader
  Remove, there's no headerLink refcount on the pointer.

Global freeSpecVec
  Eliminate linkage loop into librpmbuild.a
