Affected component(s) or functionality (if applicable)

RPM Oxide

Brief summary

RPM Oxide needs lots of unit tests.

Additional context

RPM Oxide was written in a rush to mitigate security issues with dom0’s RPM. While it passed a security review by @marmarek, I have since found at least one bug in it. The bug slipped through because the code has very few unit-tests.

Update: The code now has more unit-tests, but nowhere close to enough. The hard part is creating malformed test files to use as test cases.
