* Package name : isomd5sum Version : 11.1.0.50 Upstream Author : Jeremy Katz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> * URL : http://fedora.redhat.com/projects/anaconda-installer/ * License : GPL Programming Lang: C, Python Description : ISO/block-level checksum utilities isomd5sum is a set of utilities for implanting a MD5-like checksum in an ISO (or any block device), then verifying the checksum later. isomd5sum is part of Anaconda; when you boot a RH/Fedora installer and select "verify cd", it's running isomd5sum. isomd5sum is actually a subdirectory of the Anaconda tarball (anaconda-11.1.0.50.tar.bz2 as of this writing). I am currently working on packaging so anaconda=11.1.0.50-1 is the source package, while isomd5sum=11.1.0.50-1 is the binary package. Essentially a multi-binary package with only one binary package (now), if that makes sense. That way, if any other part of Anaconda proves to be useful, multiple binary packages can be associated with the anaconda source package. And before anybody asks, this has nothing to do with bug #222917. I have no intention of packaging the RH Anaconda installer itself; it's just that one of the sets of utilities embedded within anaconda are useful on its own. I am not a Debian developer, and this is my first ITP, so I will need someone to yell at me for the inevitable incorrect packaging methods when I do submit the package. :) -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers testing APT policy: (650, 'testing'), (600, 'unstable'), (100, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-1-686 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
