reassign 527898 piuparts retitle 527898 ignore file patters per package thanks
<h01ger> vorlon, i tend to agree with your reply regarding sldap data&purge... it just feels wrong to ignore /var/lib/ldap unconditionally (though liw has done this for quite some patterns, see http://paste.debian.net/35669/) as it feels wrong (or maybe just work) to start collecting ignore-patterns on a package basis <h01ger> vorlon, after taking a shower i came to the conclusion to reassign the bug to piuparts and indeed ignore /var/lib/ldap for the time being and add support for conditional exclusions later paste.debian.net/35669 showed: self.ignored_patterns = [ "/dev/", "/etc/ssl/certs(/.*)?", "/lib/modules/.*/modules.*", "/usr/lib/python2\../site-packages/debconf.py[co]", "/var/lib/cvs(/.*)?", "/var/lib/dpkg/alternatives", "/var/lib/dpkg/triggers/.*", "/var/lib/maxdb(/.*)?", "/var/lib/onak(/.*)?", "/var/lib/papercut(/.*)?", "/var/log/exim/.*", "/var/log/exim4/.*", "/var/mail/.*", "/var/spool/exim/.*", "/var/spool/exim4/.*", "/var/spool/news(/.*)?", "/var/spool/squid(/.*)?", "/var/run/.*", "/var/www(/.*)?", "/tmp/scripts(/.*)?" ] Maybe whitelist patters per package are overkill, maybe not. I will add /var/lib/ldap to self.ignored_patterns now and later come back to investigate whether whitelists per package are really worth it. regards, Holger
