My understanding of this is that it is a program that was written to help its author tweak the regex that denyhosts uses (which was written by the same guy). Its main attraction is that it speaks the identical language as denyhosts making it the tool of choice for tweaking those particular regexes. Another way of saying this is that pcretest helps with this process, but I think that kodos will help better. (The author says it does anyway and his reputation is sound.) So you're indicating that possibly this could be a kodos.info package instead of a kodos-py.info package if I understand you correctly. As it happens, using Kurt's kodos-py.info does tend to help with its dependencies on pyqt-py, sip-py, and python-py, but certainly those could be hard-coded as well. For my part, I would just like to package it in an acceptable fashion and I really appreciate the guidance I'm getting. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
