Hi there
How do I keep tracks of changes in packages?
I build my own packports and use a cron job to keep track of changes.
Recently Debian started insisting on using JavaScript in your browser.
So, short of using a web driver - (headless) webbrowser combination, how
do I keep track of changes?
What do you do in your browser that relates to apt and packages? I do
nearly all of my updates using apt/apt-get from the command line with
occasional forays into synaptic. I don't understand how javascritp in
your browser could affect things. (for that matter how would using
javascript affect your cron job, unless it screen scrapes which seems
a rather odd way of doing such things)
This is about updating sources of packages which are not part of the
Debian version I installed. I use these to keep my backports up to date.

Rob
