Unfortunately, and as often, documentation is certainly what smart lacks most at the moment. This will definately be addresses, but smart is currently in development stage, so features and bugfixes come first, documentation comes last. If anyone wants to volunteer for writing documentation about it, I'm sure Gustavo Niemeyer would be reaaaally happy ;-) "smart config --show" doesn't show the default settings, that are in the source code. Indeed, that would help as well, at least you can almost always make yourself an idea of what an option is for when seeing the name. I mostly got that information from the source code (which is in Python). >> If you want to make that option persistent, then use the >> following commands: >> smart config --set http_proxy=proxyserv:3128 >> smart config --set ftp_proxy=proxyserv:3128 > > That worked; great! Thanks Good :) > BTW: Is there a way to easily migrate my apt configuration to > a smart one? That's a good question. I don't think that's currently included, but a rather simple shell script should do the trick, as the apt.sources information is to be passed "as-is" to "smart channel --add", but with a slightly different format. Some smart data is missing though, such as the channel alias and description. I don't know whether smart can import an apt-rpm sources.list as-is. I'll ask the author on the next occasion (probably this evening). I quickly hacked a small shell script that should do the trick (just did minimal testing): http://linux01.gwdg.de/~pbleser/files/smart/apt-sources-to-smart.sh cheers - -- -o) Pascal Bleser http://linux01.gwdg.de/~pbleser/ /\\ <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _\_v FOSDEM 2006 -- 25+26 February 2006 in Brussels -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.2 (GNU/Linux) iD8DBQFDXMosr3NMWliFcXcRAi4AAKCtmgHzc2O/VQy7ctBlFEIcKUR/kwCdHSdO T0vMvk3rl3HRkrJpgdje1EY= =bwqk -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
