It's nice to have a daily-update cron-job for debtags (at least on my Testing machine; it'll be a bit pointless once it reaches the Stable ones). But every time it successfully updates via http, it's going to send me an e-mail about it: /etc/cron.daily/debtags: --13:40:21-- http://debtags.alioth.debian.org/tags//vocabulary.gz => `/var/lib/debtags/debtags-fetch-http---debtags.alioth.debian.org-tags-.voc.gz.tmp' Resolving debtags.alioth.debian.org... 217.196.43.134 Connecting to debtags.alioth.debian.org|217.196.43.134|:80... connected.

The real solution would be to use "debtags --quiet update", but there's no such thing; the workaround I've been using in my own local version of this cronjob was: debtags update 2>/dev/null || echo debtags update error (well, actually I used logger, not echo, but not everybody runs a logchecker.) -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (50, 'unstable') Architecture: i386 (i586) Kernel: Linux 2.6.21.xan Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages debtags depends on: ii apt [libapt-pkg-libc6.5 0.7.3 Advanced front-end for dpkg ii libc6 2.5-9+b1 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii libept0 0.5.9+b1 High-level library for managing De ii libgcc1 1:4.2-20070627-1 GCC support library ii libstdc++6 4.2-20070627-1 The GNU Standard C++ Library v3 ii libxapian15 1.0.1-1 Search engine library ii perl 5.8.8-7 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii zlib1g 1:1.2.3.3.dfsg-3 compression library - runtime debtags recommends no packages. -- no debconf information
