Hi,
is it possible to keep rpm/yum cache between builds. This is very
useful when somebody is building multiple spins that are marginally
different (language, few packages that are installed/removed) and not
to download all the packages if they haven't changed.
Does this make sense to you?
Cheers,
Valent.

See the --cache option. By default, we clean up after ourselves because
otherwise, you'd have an ever-growing drain on your available disk space

I know about --cache option but I guess I have miss understood it. I
understood that that option only defines where cache files are
temporary kept and that they are also deleted from that location after
iso file is build. I thought what I need is a new option --keep-cache
what would complement --cache option.
I also found a bug in --help option, can you spot it?

Is it the missing close parenthesis at the very end? :)
