ok, i add more :)

O.K. I'll try this. But what about the negative numbers?
I saw something like -30 in the file.

I've added this:

#- lower bound on the left ( aka 90 means [90-100[ )
my %compssList = (
  90 => __("must have"), #- every install have these packages (unless hand de-selected 
in expert, or not enough room)
  80 => __("important"), #- every custom install have these packages (unless not

  40 => __("interesting"),
  30 => __("maybe"),
  20 => __("maybe"),
  10 => __("useless"),
   0 => __("garbage"),
);

it will be used in the individual package selection to display the Rating for
each package

i you have better words, please do tell :)


Oliver, if it's still not enough, tell me.

I've already done that, but still have no clue about the numbers
behind the packages and categories.

Might be that I'm to stupid :-)

Re: [Cooker] compssList

[Chris Blazek]

I just had a basic question about forks. I'm writing an app that needs to fork
off three children and I need to distinguish between the children with wait().
Can anyone help?

ex of what I tried to get to work...

pid1 = fork();  /1st child
pid2 = fork();  /2nd child
pid3 = fork();  /3rd child


if (pid1 != 0 )
{  /*  Paren't block of code  */}

else if (pid1 = 0)
{  /* 1st child's block of code  */}

else if (pid2 = 0)
{  /*  2nd child's block of code  */}

else
{  /*  3rd child's block of code  */}


just to keep it short... results are the parent block of code is run and then
the else statement is run... It doesn't like it when i try to determine the
child in an else if statement or an if statement like i have... Any ideas?

Thanks in advance,
Chris Blazek

well, it tries to deselect the autoselected packages, not the hand-selected
ones. The problem comes from , for eg, if you deselect libgimp, it will deselect
gimp also, even if you had hand-selected it.

Does it go thru the whole list and deselect pkgs that require whatever you
just unselected?

Sounds right to me, I've yet to see it tell me that it's adding foo.rpm
because frub.rpm needs it. 

I smell new expert feature :-) 

Ok we'll use this as an example,

MySQL-shared-libs-3.22.25-6mdk 91710 bash-2.03-17mdk glibc-2.1.2-8mdk

I select MySQL-shared-libs (from where ever its hideing in pkg selection)
dialog box pops up (same as the one thats onscreen, to make it easy)
except instead of Administration:whatever it has just MySQL-shared-libs as
the primary branch and it's dependancy bash and glibc. From here we can
select/deselect dependancy.

At the very least it should do the newt thing.. ala. "hey dummy you forgot
libfoo, so snazzy_prog isn't gonna work"

it should be shown as selected, even it was selected as a dependency.

I have gone back and checked after I got to the bottom of the list and made sure
they were unselected. but maybe it dosn't show up that it is selected if it is a
dependecy select? not sure on how that works?

If you've unselected them the only reason they would get installed is if
something else required them

You get postgres if you install midgard-php-pgsql or mod_php3
You get tetex if you install jadetex or klyx

thanks for all the help I hope I did it right I just finished making the new
depslist and edied the compss and compssList

btw the comandline in the README file for the makedeps program dose not work

as far as I can tell its gendepslist Mandrake/base/depslist Mandrake/RPMS/*
that generates the files correctly

some kind of mark between 0 and 99

used to select X Megabytes 
eg: for 250Mb in normal, it selects the higher marked packages plus their
dependencies until 250Mb is reached.
