Hi again, I'm considering using the debtags tools (Python bindings) for a program used to browse the documentation in the TeX Live TeX distribution (it provides a fair amount of documentation and I think the debtags approach would allow to browse among these documents in a very efficient way).
Consequently, I'm looking at http://debian.vitavonni.de/ and trying to understand more precisely how it works before advocating the debtags approach on the TeX Live mailing-list. And there is something I don't understand: when looking at http://debian.vitavonni.de/packagebrowser/?tags=network%2Cnetwork%3A%3Aserver%2Cculture I'm specifically asking for the "culture" tag, but then why is pioneers-server-console listed on the page? AFAICS, it has no tag related to culture. According to http://debtags.alioth.debian.org/edit.html?pkg=pioneers-server-console it has only the following tags: game::board implemented-in::c network::server network::service protocol::tcp role::program use::entertaining use::gameplaying and I don't think any of these implies "culture". Second question. I also looked at /var/lib/debtags/package-tags in order to find this information and there, pioneers-server-console is only tagged with: game::board role::program which is a small subset of the tags found on debtags.alioth.debian.org. AFAIU, this is because my /var/lib/debtags/package-tags is built from /etc/debtags/sources.list, which only pointed to "tags apt://", which is a "conservative" database. OK. I commented out this line and enabled: tags http://debtags.alioth.debian.org/tags/ instead to have bleeding-edge tags. Then, I ran (as root, with no errors, cf. attached file for the output): debtags update I now have these two files in /var/lib/debtags/: -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 448647 2007-07-01 14:01 debtags-fetch-http---debtags.alioth.debian.org-tags-.tag.gz -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 14121 2007-07-01 14:01 debtags-fetch-http---debtags.alioth.debian.org-tags-.voc.gz the former does contain the new tags, but from the debtags man page and the comments at the top of /etc/debtags/sources.list, I assume that these files should have been merged by "debtags update" into /var/lib/debtags/{package-tags,vocabulary} (updating the indices afterwards). % ls -l -t /var/lib/debtags/ total 3272 -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 1499574 2007-07-01 16:12 package-tags -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 767912 2007-07-01 16:12 package-tags.idx -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 495157 2007-07-01 16:12 pkgidx.idx -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 69228 2007-07-01 16:12 vocabulary -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 23224 2007-07-01 16:12 vocabulary.idx -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 448647 2007-07-01 14:01 debtags-fetch-http---debtags.alioth.debian.org-tags-.tag.gz -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 14121 2007-07-01 14:01 debtags-fetch-http---debtags.alioth.debian.org-tags-.voc.gz % Is it a bug of the debtags program? Otherwise, what should I do to get the new data merged into the authoritative files (currently, "debtags show pioneers-server-console" does *not* show the new tags that are in debtags-fetch-http---debtags.alioth.debian.org-tags-.tag.gz, only the old ones from /var/lib/debtags/package-tags). I'm running all this on etch. Thanks for any insight. Regards,
