Hi, I just got curious and I decided to count the total number of packages (across all architectures and all branch - main, contrib, non-free) in the current Sid branch.
Here is what I did: 1. Downloaded the file: http://packages.debian.org/unstable/allpackages?format=txt.gz 2. and then give the command: wc -l allpackages.txt 30454 3. Subtract 6 (because of the header in the beginning) from the total that you get. So is it correct to say that Debian Sid has around 30448 (roughly) packages? I would like to know if this method is correct or not/ Thanks Kushal Koolwal _________________________________________________________________ Windows Liveā¢ HotmailĀ®: Chat. Store. Share.
