[Libguestfs] [PATCH 00/10] RFC: builder: first support for Simple Streams metadata

[Pino Toscano]

Hi,

this series adds a basic support for Simple Streams v1.0 metadata
files. This makes it possible to create a repository .conf files with

 [cirros]
 uri=http://download.cirros-cloud.net
 format=simplestreams

to read the latest version of each CirrOS image.

TODO items:
- a bit more testing: listing and creating images works, so the
  current metadata is correct
- handle revisions, so newer revisions in images are seen; might
  imply switch the internal revision handling from int to string

Except from the actual patch #10, the rest of the work should be fine
for eventual inclusion.

Thanks,


Pino Toscano (10):
  builder: add format=FMT in repository .conf files
  builder: create and use a new Checksums module
  builder: add SHA256 support in Checksums
  builder: internally use a list of checksums for indexes
  builder: allow signatures from subkeys
  builder: split Index_parser.index in an own module
  fix -- add Index
  builder: expose Sigchecker.verifying_signatures
  builder: add Sigchecker.verify_and_remove_signature
