Btw, we'll have to take a decision about perl-URPMI &amp; urpmi
There've been quite a lot of commits from pok.
We've two alternatives: stick with perl-URPM &amp; urpmi from pre-rpm5
or sync with mdv.
I'm not sure pok has kept compatilibity with rpm-4 and if there'has been
any other damage.
eg: if I remember right, pok removed my perl-URPM workaround for rpm segfaulting
because he fixed it in rpm5...

I think anssi &amp; me (&amp; maybe C. Fergeau if he wants to work with
Mageia, I forgot to ask him
last time I saw him) should be able to maintain those.
