I think that feature could be used to define most tags when applied to software. However I think you're right to say that we can make a facet to look at library features. libfeature::*, maybe? libfeature::fft, libfeature::parsing don't look so well, though :( > BTW concerning this issue I'd like to ask how to modify the available > options in debtags-edit? Does anybody know? You mean, you want to add new tags? In that case, you can create your own piece of vocabulary and merge it in the system. I quote from my /etc/debtags/sources.list (edited fixing the file: line, which requires three /, and is wrong in the debtags/sources.list currently in sid) # Example of locally maintained custom tag data # # You can provide your own tag data. To do so, place a file called # vocabulary.gz and a file called tags-current.gz in a directory, and # use the directory as a tag source. # # In the example given below, you would place the tag data in # /etc/debtags/mytags/tags-current.gz, and the vocabulary data in # /etc/debtags/mytags/vocabulary.gz # # The format of tags-current.gz is described in the tagcoll(1) manpage # and the file is similar to /var/lib/debtags/package-tags. # # The format of vocabulary.gz is like the Debian Packages file, and # the file is# similar to /var/lib/debtags/vocabulary. # tags file:///etc/debtags/mytags The tags you put in your custom vocabulary will then be available in debtags-edit.
