Do the old ones need to be kept around for GPL and other compliance?
No, as long as we have a way to trace back from a given image to its source components, which the system does, and as long as we don't throw those away, which we don't.
How does one get the source code of what XYZ image is and XYZ+1 image?
Handwavy something that Adam can probably explain. :)
This is where the disk storage becomes problematic and the mirroring harder. A lot of mirrors have a throughput of 1-5 Mb/s when combined with all the other people trying to mirror. Rawhide already overwhelms a bunch of them. We need to make sure that our 'update' path makes sense so that we meet a bunch of different things and make sure that people can actually sync.
Yeah.
