People who are interested in adopting orphaned packages might want to run something like the script below to see the list of orphaned packges that are installed on their system sorted by the packages' popcon scores. This may help with deciding which package to adopt. #!/bin/sh MAINT=`(test -z "$1" && echo [EMAIL PROTECTED]) || echo "$1"` for x in `grep-status -F Maintainer "$MAINT" -n -s Package`; do ept-cache show $x | grep-dctrl '' -n -s Popcon,Package | paste -sd '\t'; done | sort -nr Note that you need to enable the popcon data provider for ept-cache for this script to work.
