[Piuparts-devel] calling piuparts-master

Hi,

I'm thinking about writing a wrapper around piuparts-master and changing
the calling scheme.

The wrapper will be a shell script that takes care about redirecting
stderr and setting PYTHONPATH.
It will read one line from stdin, that will be passed as the section
argument when calling piuparts-master.py

* slave does not need to know master-directory or PYTHONPATH on master
* slave does not run a complicted shell command line via ssh
* authorized_keys can be restricted to allow running exactly this
wrapper without arguments

This should make virtualized and distributed setups easier.

How should we call this wrapper?

Andreas
