Question about obsolete Conflicts

2007-03-05 Thread Regis Boudin
Hi all, I might be completely wrong, but... Playing around with dependencies trees, I noticed there are quite a few obsolete Conflicts fields in the archive. Would it be worth starting a bit of cleanup after Etch is released ? I think having the archive cleaner from this point of view might not b

Oops... Just noticed I had a bug and was testing versions the wrong way around, so all the cases where the version of a package is the same as in the declared conflict gave the wrong result. I will upload pages with correct data this evening. On Sun, March 11, 2007 23:01, Regis Boudin wrote: >

More conflicts data

2007-03-19 Thread Regis Boudin
Hi everyone. Still playing with the conflicts field in the archive, I have more and better data. First, I decided to go as far as I could in the archive, so my checks now cover Hamm and Bo as well, including contrib, non-free and non-US. I still need to move the conflicts against a specific versi

Status of the orca and tinysnmp packages ?

2007-04-17 Thread Regis Boudin
Hi, The orca package was last uploaded in July 2004 (same age as the latest upstream release), has 5 RC bugs open against it, needs to be ported to the new rrd and tinysnmp APIs since 2 years ago. Is this package still active upstream and maintained ? Or should we request for its removal ? Same g

Build-Depends and virtual packages

Hi all, Over the last few days, I've been looking at Build-Depends and Build-Depends-Indep fields. My original aim was something like trying to have a build path to rebuild the complete archive, with only a Sources file as starting data (basically, src:foo build-depends on libbar-dev in the "Binar
