Yes, this looks good. I would prefer to pass all option except possible popcon-nodependency ones to orphaner an let orphaner handle the rest, this would minimize future changes in popcon-nodependency, but there is no need to adapt this before the rest of the script is finished. Before calling orphaner can be added I need to add the required options to deborphan. > Carsten Hey a écrit : > > Do you agree to publish the parts of your fork of orphaner where you are the > > copyright holder under the conditions of the above-mentioned MIT license? > > Sure, no problem.

Better ask "combine <(deborphan ..." as described in my last mail, popcon-nodependency currently can't handle dependencies in a sane way since deborphan has not been extended in the necessary way. > That's why I think it is interesting to provide some help to prioritize > packets to consider first... ;-) That would require optional sorting by size in orphaner.

So no, I don't think adding such things is reasonable without dialog being extended first. Regards Carsten -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
