6 Data Base Abstraction
7
8 This class provides a simple interface to an abstract notion of a
9 database directory for storing state information about the system.
10
11 The 'Meta' information for a package is the control information and
12 setup scripts stored inside the archive. GetMetaTmp returns the name of
13 a directory that is used to store named files containing the control
14 information.
15
16 The File Listing is the database of installed files. It is loaded
17 into the memory/persistent cache structure by the ReadFileList method.
