At this time there isn't any good way to do that securely, until #763419 gets implemented. https://bugs.debian.org/763419 Your options are: You can use debsnap, which is easy but not secure. $ debsnap srcpkg version Debian members can login to lw08.debian.org, that has NFS access to the snapshot archive and guest access to the snapshot meta-data database. That is probably the most secure you can get right now. There are some Python functions for interacting with the DB here: https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/dex/census.git/tree/bin/compare-source-package-list#n517 -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise _______________________________________________ vcs-pkg-discuss mailing list vcs-pkg-discuss@lists.alioth.debian.org http://lists.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/vcs-pkg-discuss
