#125 Avoid relying on the presence of sqlite metadata
Opened 2 years ago by dalley. Modified 2 years ago

Blocker for https://pagure.io/releng/issue/10745

Sqlite metadata is computationally expensive to generate and often requires a few hundred megabytes of additional space when hosting a mirror. DNF doesn't use it, only later versions of yum do, and they don't need it to be present. Therefore the sensible default is to stop generating this metadata.

Currently the fact that mdapi uses it prevents Fedora from doing so.
