Bug#481415: dcmd: options to select files to process/pass on
also sprach Adam D. Barratt [EMAIL PROTECTED] [2008.11.14.1251 +0100]: Over the nearly six month period in between the two hacks on dcmd, I'd entirely forgotten your original request to raise an error if the files were not found - is that something you're still interested in? If so, I'll add it to the script (although most likely as an option as I've been finding it quite useful during testing to be able to say select whatever subset of these files is listed). Yeah, an option would be fine. It's just that if I ask the tool to give me orig and diff and it returns successfully, I'd like to be able to assume that the files are present before the command dcmd invokes is run. Also, if I need diff and orig to be passed to a command, maybe because it expects those two (ordering might play a role?) then it would not be acceptable if dcmd simply left out one of them if the file wasn't present. -- .''`. martin f. krafft [EMAIL PROTECTED] : :' : proud Debian developer, author, administrator, and user `. `'` http://people.debian.org/~madduck - http://debiansystem.info `- Debian - when you have better things to do than fixing systems digital_signature_gpg.asc Description: Digital signature (see http://martin-krafft.net/gpg/)

I'm still thinking as to whether there's an elegant way of checking each type individually that doesn't involve silly amounts of repitition in the code (particularly given that dcmd is shell). Hmmm, I hadn't realised it had been so long since I originally looked at this bug. My original attempt at fixing it largely got thrown away as it involved doing horrible amounts of regex processing. I've now replaced it with a nicer version which also implements --no-diff and friends.

I had a feeling that might be your answer, and yet hoped it wouldn't be. ;-) I've got an updated script that makes dcmd --diff --orig scp foo.changes work, but it only errors if the expansion produced no files /of any type/; unfortunately if there is a diff but not an orig, it doesn't currently complain.
