Description

The project https://github.com/sassoftware/python-rpm-vercmp has been archived and is no longer supported.

This issue is tracking the work to deprecate python-rpm-vercmp's usage in the Salt code base in the module salt/modules/rpm_lowpkg.py. We need to do the following:

  • Add deprecation for python-rpm-vercmp
  • Find an alternative for users using onedir, since they cannot use the system python rpm library.
  • Figure out if we can use the logic when rpmdev-vercmp exists on the system as a replacement?
