You cand this information at http://archive.debian.net/ It raises a question, we have distinct packages search engines: - unarchived distributions: http://packages.debian.org/search?keywords=vim - archived distribution: http://archive.debian.net/search?keywords=vim But archive.debian.net is : - not an official service, hence not under the same group which takes care of packages.d.o - not well advertised. What about : - advertising archive.debian.net or $LOCATION at http://archive.debian.org/ ? - having an official package search engine for archived distribution - merging engines for both old and new distributions ? -- Simon Paillard -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
