I was thinking of the pre-approval backlog that you mentioned. But okay, if there's no backlog, then the new tags will end up in /var/lib/apt/lists/*Packages the next time I do an apt-get update on an Unstable machine. (Or, fortunately, the next time cron-apt does it on my machine with Etch+Sid in its sources.list.) But is there a way of browsing those tags, or do I need to download them to /var/cache/debtags as well? (I assume that gives the same set of "approved" tags?) And is there a way of seeing what has changed in the tags list, other than stashing private backups and diffing? -- JBR Ankh kak!
