[ CC-ing debian-release for their information, but please discuss on -qa ] Hi!
As I just started to publish the rc-stats again on my block, the release team asked me, wether it was possible to create a list of rc buggy leaf packages, so binary packages, which are not used as (build-) dependency of any other package. Turns out: It is possible, but all ways I found are quite inefficient. I commited my work so far to the collab-qa repository [1][2], and a first already succeded and found about 460 of these packages (modulo some pseudo packages). However, my attempt took about 7 hours to finish on wagner.debian.org, so I wondering if anyone has an idea for improvements. Especially the grep I use to elimnate packages with dependencies takes awfully long (took over 600 minutes last night on wagner.d.o), but my attempt to solve that onyl with UDD are also quite slow, as the dependencies are also only in the plaintext form, and I found any attempt to use like operator to be even slower than that. So, if anyone has a good idea, or can improve my SQL, please do so now :) 1: svn+ssh://svn.debian.org/svn/collab-qa/rc-buggy-leaf-packages 2: http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/collab-qa/rc-buggy-leaf-packages/ Best Regards, Alexander -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
