Hi, FYI: straight out of IRC, otherwise I'll forget 19:29 * buxy is fixing the PTS with the multiples sources in Sources.gz file 19:30 <buxy> I wrote a pure-python dpkg version comparison for this 19:30 <buxy> if anyone is interested in it, it will be in www/bin/common.py in the PTS code as soon as I'll commit it 19:31 <phil> Wow, seriously, yet another version comparison algorithm? 19:39 <buxy> well, forking dpkg --compare-versions was not interesting and I don't like python-apt :) 19:39 <buxy> (I simply transposed the perl code from Dpkg::Version in python) 19:48 <CIA-6> qa.debian.org: hertzog * r2324 /trunk/pts/www/bin/ 19:48 <godog> buxy: python-debian would be a nice fit, there isn't one IIRC 19:57 <buxy> godog: I agree, feel free to pick it up :) 20:00 <godog> buxy: I'm sending this log to the list, the broader the audience the better :) 20:02 <buxy> godog: thanks
in fact I just checked, and the Version class makes use of apt_pkg. If anyone wants to pick it up that would be nice, I'm not sure I can work on it anytime soon. cheers, filippo -- Filippo Giunchedi - http://esaurito.net - 0x6B79D401 When I was young I observed that nine out of every ten things I did were failures, so I did ten times more work. -- George Bernard Shaw -- http://lists.alioth.debian.org/mailman/listinfo/pkg-python-debian-discuss
