Today I read a post[1] by Xavier about how deltas cannot currently be used. As I say in the thread, I will work on adding delta creation support to repo-add in the next week.
Is there anything else that needs to be changed before this can actually be used?
Another issue is that dbscripts (the database scripts used for core / extra repos) don't use repo-add, even if there is a plan to do that. (see http://www.archlinux.org/pipermail/pacman-dev/2008-January/010999.html) But community already uses repo-add, so maybe once support is added to repo-add, it would be easy to get xdelta in community?
