Bug#463050: qa.debian.org: please list packages in mentors.d.n in TODO section

Actually, any version on mentors, since mentors tracks the archive and deletes packages that have been uploaded to the official archive. I need a clarification on this: does mentors get rid of packages which were on mentors and get uploaded with the _same_ version in the official archive, or it rather gets rid of any packages on mentors which get superseded in the official archive via an upload of version greater or equal than what were on mentors? The latter case would be simpler, as I can avoid completely doing version comparisons in the PTS, and simply output the TODO item if a version (whatever it might be) is available on mentors.d.n. Let me know, TIA, Cheers. -- Stefano Zacchiroli -*- PhD in Computer Science \ PostDoc @ Univ.

Not entirely sure, I believe it is the latter though. CCing Signum, who can provide a definitive answer on this. Also, the mentors code will be changing at some point when debexpo gets deployed (currently in development by a GSoC student). -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part

Also, the mentors code will be changing at some point when debexpo gets deployed (currently in development by a GSoC student). Currently mentors just removes packages automatically that have exactly the same version appearing on the debian-devel-changes@ mailing list. But it won't react to newer packages. This is not the best solution. And it will be solved soon hopefully.

Perfect. Latest available in sid or experimental IMO. Is there any Sources file available which corresponds to the mentors.d.n archive? I'm not sure.
