        Why do we need this?
        --------------------
        
        Why do we need this when there are perfectly good 'yum' and 'rpm' python
        packages?
        
        Simple really: they don't work on systems without yum or rpm (eg.
        debian, osx).
        
        I had a need to manipulate and/or extract data from rpms and yum
        repositories to manage rpms, but wasn't neccesarily running a
        fedora/rhel/centos system. So I build a platform agnostic system to help
        me.
        
        Where is it at?
        ---------------
        
        I have another project `yum2s3 <https://github.com/drewsonne/yum2s3>`__
        which was the driving factor behind building this library. For this
        reason, the functionality in this library is driven primary by the needs
        of that project.
        
        Can I help?
        -----------
        
        Please do! I've done my best to make this a test driven project, so if
        you can improve my tests; please do. If you can write new tests; please
        do. If you can expand functionality after writing tests; please do. But
        please, write tests. For the most part I'm not fussy about branching and
        such with pull requests. But please write some tests. In conclusion,
        tests.
