Package: wnpp Severity: wishlist * Package name : madison-lite Version : 0.1 Upstream Author : Colin Watson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~cjwatson/code/madison-lite/ * License : BSD Description : display versions of Debian packages in an archive
This program inspects a local Debian package archive and displays the versions of the given packages found in each suite (for example, stable, testing, or unstable) in a brief but easily human-readable form. It aims to be a drop-in replacement for the madison utility from the da-katie archive management suite that runs on the central Debian archive systems, but one which can run without access to the archive's SQL database. I've been running this on gluck for a while, and it works well, but it does require a certain amount of disk space: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~$ du .madison-lite 13792 .madison-lite/cache 13800 .madison-lite Before I upload this I'll add an example script or something that downloads Packages and Sources files from a mirror so that you don't have to maintain a full local mirror to use it.
