hi all,the deken package index (aka: your favourite package manager for externals), has recently started filtering out a few packages, namely: - Source-only packages (these are packages that contain only the C/C++ files for building externals, and are not useful on itself). - packages with invalid versions of architectures (there are very few packages that have an invalid version, and those appear to be mostly errors on the uploaders side (e.g. there are packages with a version "v$(releaseTag)"))
i think that these changes are mostly in the interest of the users as they remove noise from the search results (and most people will probably not notice at all).
the webinterface on https://deken.puredata.info/ has also been slightly improved, and now sorts versions the same as the deken-plugin (at least with the latest and greatest deken-plugin). it also allows the user to filter results by architecture (e.g. if you are only interested in externals that can be used on Windows-on-arm¹ you can now efficiently use the webinterface).
of course, you can also list Source-only packages via the webinterface. if you notice any weirdnesses, please let me know. fmgdsar IOhannes¹ <https://deken.puredata.info/search.html?os=Windows&cpu=arm64&arch_all=0> would list any externals containing binaries for Windows-on-arm; whereas <https://deken.puredata.info/search.html?os=Windows&cpu=arm64> will give you all packages that are usable on Windows-on-arm (binaries, and patch-only libraries)
