Package: ftp.debian.org In debian-cd, we parse the Sources.gz to generate lists of packages used in generating jigdos. The latest change in dak which changes the output format has broken this for us.
Yes, I *know* that we should be able to cope with format changes by parsing source stanzas fully, but that'll be much slower than what I have now. My existing code relies on the Directory field coming before the Files field(s), so that I can simply concatenate the two for my needs. Now that Directory comes *after* the Files field, to do this properly I'll have to generate a list internally and then output at the end of the stanza. Of course that's possible, but the code is a little more complex and slower. If you could please move the Directory field back above Files, that would be nice... -- Steve McIntyre, Cambridge, UK. st...@einval.com "C++ ate my sanity" -- Jon Rabone -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
