List of changes...
Hi all, Is there a list of changes from 1.2.5 to 1.2.7? I just got my tri-Linux CD and it is based on 1.2.5. I have installed 1.2.7 from ftp.debian.org but the installation didn't go smoothly. I want to start from scratch from the CD to get an idea of the best way to install the various packages and then once I understand the nuances, get the latest 1.2.7 differences from the ftp site. If there were a list of all the differences, it would make my life a little easier... Thanks, Mark -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] Applied Digital Access, Inc. San Diego, CA 92121

I think dftp can handel this, since you can run it on your shell account with a list of Files to fetch. See dftp --help for instructions.

Once rex is released, could a list of updated packages be posted? Until I get a CD-ROM of it from somewhere, I'd like to download the packages and install them individually. I'm running dpkg-ftp right now, but my ISP is extremely slow and downloading approximately 21mb is going to take hours. I have a much faster shell account elsewhere, though. A list of things that have changed would help. Thanks!

I think that the question was whether we could get the info before downloading the package. That is, is there a change log of some sort at the ftp or web site? Actually, I don't know if that was the question but I would certainly like to know. Thanks, Nathan -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

This file is used to generate the different .changes files, so it lists everything you want. The old source format didn't mandate a chagelog file, so often there simply isn't one. -- joost witteveen [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- Use Debian/GNU Linux! -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .

Getting a list of changes to a package...
Is there a list kept anywhere that details the changes that were made to a given Debian package. I know that a little blurb is sent to debian-changes (or some list like that) every time a new version is uploaded, but I was wondering if there's some place where I can see a history of the revisions. - Joe -- TO UNSUBSCRIBE FROM THIS MAILING LIST: e-mail the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED] .
