Right. Perhaps it could even call python, and use the code I drafted in <URL: http://people.skolelinux.org/pere/blog/How_to_find_a_browser_plugin_supporting_a_given_MIME_type.html >? Or some apt API directly? All it need to do is loop over all packages available via APT and look for some extra headers. Perhaps PackageKit is overkill for this? -- Happy hacking Petter Reinholdtsen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
