experimental/benh57/fink/reporting.patch
Folks are wondering why i don't make it live. I do want to put it into CVS, HEAD actually, but since 24 is imminent it does make sense to wait till the new fink is out.
Any objections to me checking in this reporting system to HEAD once .24 is released? I haven't recieved much feedback on the implementation or design of the system. I'd like to get it tested, and it will be easiest to get folks to test it if i can put it into CVS. I will fully comment out the non-implemented parts in the help.
One other thing holding it up is that i would like to move it to using a better mysql server backend. OD.org may not be able to handle the very large db this will generate. I am thinking of putting just the package details /contents on the alternate SQL server while keeping all the main stuff on the sf one.
The search and database is currently here: http://www.opendarwin.org/~benh57/fink/pdb/search.php
each package version links to a details page with the contents of the pkg, like:
http://www.opendarwin.org/~benh57/fink/pdb/package.php/a52dec (click the 'unstable' version)
http://www.opendarwin.org/~benh57/fink/pdb/packagedetails.php? tree=current-10.3-unstable&pkg=a52dec&version=0.7.4-1
Other Features:
- different prefixes are handled by changing %p to /sw for the db
- different builds of same pkg shown - (each will be listed, with number of votes for each one)
- Since we track votes and such, submitting contents requires an account. Currently no functionality for creating new accounts, is done manually. First submitter of each build is listed in case we would like to contact that person to debug why theirs broke.
- packages not in online PDB are not submitted.
- The system has a shell for submitting package feedback (stable/unstable) to maintainers which is not fully implemented.
thanks
-Ben
