Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist Owner: Neil Williams <codeh...@debian.org>
* Package name : ladder Version : 0.0.1 Upstream Author : Neil Williams <codeh...@debian.org> * License : GPL3+ Programming Lang: Perl Description : Stepwise repository upgrade tool Creates a local repository of packages required to upgrade a chroot to a new milestone or software release. .. The repository can be signed and includes all specified target packages and dependencies. The repository can then be distributed and used to upgrade multiple devices in sequence without needing network access. This is a package I needed for work and turns out to be potentially useful for other production environments, especially where the base system is fixed between milestones and custom software is released on top. The principle will be that a sequence of ladder tarballs can be kept, one for each milestone, allowing devices to step up the ladder from one milestone to the next. Downgrading, as in Debian, is not supported. I'll be using Emdebian SVN before uploading. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
