That's strange..
Sorry for the delay. Attached, please find a replacement for
HarvestPackages.py.
No problem at all. I understand it can be quite time consuming, and I'm
a very patient guy ;)
It takes a long time to run, but doesn't do a lot of Internet access.
If you find it downloading stuff, you probably need to install the
*xml docbook*.
HarvestPackages.py produces a copy of pkgs.dat on standard output, so
you want to redirect output to that file. It finds 369 packages in
the BLFS BOOK.
The AuditPackages.py script needs to be changed to "fix" packages that
have alternate dependencies. This is not done, yet.
Please let me know how HarvestPackages.py works for you now.
I'll come back to you on that first thing tomorrow. Will be off to bed
quite soon :(
