Right, I know your script. But I fear it does not behave like the one used by archlinux.org. e.g. maintainer-infos are missing and it fails on some scripts using too much bash-scripting. ;-) And you cannot search for included files. To achiebe this you would hae to parse the built packages. So I think reinventing the wheel would not be a good idea here. > > > > But yes could be usefull to have a dump of official db.

But for now an official dump of the package-db would be very helpfull. And this could be done within minutes. Just create a cron-job which dumps the package-table and save it to a public accessable place. _______________________________________________ arch mailing list [email protected] http://www.archlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/arch
