Description Frank Ch. Eigler 2012-03-23 18:23:04 UTC 
Akin to the existing --download-debuginfo for bug#12773, we could an option to use directly the new darkserver.fedoraproject.org JSON/REST web service to map build-ids to RPM names, and thence to downloadable RPMs, and thence to a personal debuginfo cache.

I am working on a command line darkserver client called darkclient. 
I am hoping to release the 0.1 version over this weekend. This is written in python and does not require any other special libraries to run.
