To get some indication on what packages are being used in an educational setting, I'm updating the popularity-contest framework to make it possible for me to set up a popularity-contest site for debian-edu. I've changed the client package to use HTTP and to be able to report to several collectors. This is present in popularity-contest v1.30 in sid.
The 1.30 package should work on both woody and sarge as well (but give some error message to root when executed on woody - fixed in next version). To participate, run this script as root, and make sure version 1.30 is installed: #!/bin/sh set -e cd /tmp wget ftp://ftp.skolelinux.no/debian/pool/main/p/popularity-contest/popularity-contest_1.30_all.deb DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive dpkg -i popularity-contest_1.30_all.deb #DEBIAN_FRONTEND=noninteractive apt-get -y install popularity-contest echo 'PARTICIPATE="yes"' >> /etc/popularity-contest.conf echo 'USEHTTP="yes"' >> /etc/popularity-contest.conf echo 'SUBMITURLS="http://popcon.debian.org/cgi-bin/popcon.cgi http://developer.skolelinux.no/cgi-bin/popcon-submit.cgi"' >> /etc/popularity-contest.conf /etc/cron.weekly/popularity-contest I'll make some stats available on a web page soon. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
