I don't know how big your squidguard blacklists are (its a good idea to include details when asking questions), but the largest one I could find was 20MB, much smaller than some of the packages I maintain in Debian, let alone the largest package in Debian. Anyway, rsync sounds like the most appropr

A DNSBL is the traditional solution for blacklists, why are you putting your blacklist in a .deb? -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org Archiv

Ok here is the specific place: I've got blacklists, some with over 1 million entries, so the .deb packages have a big size. Debdelta doesn't function good, because so the whole list would be uninstalled and the new list installed. For all 2 million transactions this needs lots of time. And I t

I asked for a specific place you want to use it, rather than some general ideas. I don't think a generalised mechanism can work in the situations you are thinking of, per-database mechanisms are the way to go really. -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to de

I'd like use this for Antivirus-Databases, Blacklists, etc. - Anything that supports many updates in short time for huge datasets. The reason for this is, that: 1. Every update would produce much bandwith, because for every update the complete database has to be downloaded by aptitude. 2. On eve

Hi ;) I would like to imagine a time approach, could be made easier with the updates. With daily changing databases like virus database, blacklists, card or similar is always a part of the old data is erased as new data are added. Programs such as clamav bring it with their own update client. But
