The packages get removed and then presumably get added again later with orphan status. This must be thoroughly fucking up the web interface new package notification. a) is WTF. I just checked the current state of the db.tar.gz and they seem to contain packages that reporead claims were removed. So it doesn't look like anything is breaking the db.tar.gz. It seems more like reporead is not reading the whole file. But its still possible the db.tar.gz has been fixed since the error occurred. I have added some logging info to say how many packages are currently in the web db and how many are in the new sync db. If these are disparate the problem is in the code that loads the repo.db.tar.gz. Otherwise its in the code that adds/removes packages. I also implemented a check to warn or exception if these numbers are 75% or 50%, as Paul suggested. I don't have time to look for anything else right now, hopefully it will keep happening so I can track it down. Does somebody want to give me a quck rundown or wiki article of how the database tools move packages from svn to release in repo.db.tar.gz? I'm thinking if reporead wants to be this anal, maybe we should add some hooks to whatever script says 'I just released a package, please update the database' and sync up the web database at the time things get updated. Sorry I don't know what's causing this folks. I'm just praying its a long standing bug and can blame it on cactus instead of having to come back to y'all and say "well here's the thing, I introduced this really really stupid bug into reporead.py....." ;-) Dusty
