This is the second in a series of projects to help a few open source groups. We need a patch that applies to pkgcore [1] which will change the current vdb backend to use the smart [2] package manager file object store. [1] [url removed, login to view] [2] [url removed, login to view]

## Deliverables

Technical deliverables:

1) patch that cleanly applies to [url removed, login to view] using diff -ruN

2) Copy

pkgcore/pkgcore/vdb/

to

pkgcore/pkgcore/smart

and change what's required in order to use addFileChannel from [url removed, login to view] as found [1]

3) the end goal is that pkgcore will be changed to completely not rely on the vdb database for storing it's packaging information and instead use the smart modules/methods 4) You will have to install pkgcore and smart package manager to effectively test that pkgcore is in fact using the database and storing the information correctly and can be used seamlessly between the two programs.
