I think we can store these properties as common ones: 1) Name - store in the variable PackageName 2) Version - PackageVersion 3) Maintainer/Packager email (is this important to be stored ? - I never look at this field :) - Packager 4) Description - Description 5) (If available, maybe ?) Changelog - ebuild probably doesnt have this, ignore it 6) Section/Group - PackageGroup Pat, which of these are available in ebuilds ? - dBera PS: Are there any other popular linux packages other than deb, rpm and ebuild ? -- ----------------------------------------------------- Debajyoti Bera @ http://dbera.blogspot.com beagle / KDE fan Mandriva / Inspiron-1100 user _______________________________________________ Dashboard-hackers mailing list Dashboard-hackers@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/dashboard-hackers
