We have some historical data; I have used it in the past to see how fast the build-arch target was being adopted[1]. You can find that data in /srv/lintian.debian.org/history on lintian.d.o. We do also have a bug to turn that data into graphs (#672273). ~Niels [1] http://people.debian.org/~nthykier/rg-build-arch-target/affected-packages-graphs.png data: http://people.debian.org/~nthykier/rg-build-arch-target/affected-packages-graphs.dat NB: Huge spikes are almost always fixes in Lintian or/and fill runs. There is one of the smaller spikes caused by a maintainer uploads. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
