Re: [Slackbuilds-users] Keywords in info file
The other thing to keep in mind is this: the database keeps track of the keywords that have already been associated with the SlackBuild. The only reason you would need to worry about that after the original submission is if you come up with additional keywords, which shouldn't happen often unless you're dealing with systemd-level feature creep. --JK Well that's good to know. I always open existing SlackBuilds as I submit an update and copy paste all the fields. It would be nice to just have the form read in values from tgz upload though.

Any real benefit of adding this keyword in the info file? Currently, we store the keywords in the database so that it could be used for searching purpose and easily modified without having to submit a new package just to change the keywords. Also, i personally disagree to use info file to store all the keywords, since it would mean more checking during approval since a single mistake in the .info files could cause some problem during public update. -- Willy Sudiarto Raharjo signature.asc Description: OpenPGP digital signature ___ SlackBuilds-users mailing list SlackBuilds-users@slackbuilds.org http://lists.slackbuilds.org/mailman/listinfo/slackbuilds-users Archives - http://lists.slackbuilds.org/pipermail/slackbuilds-users/ FAQ - http://slackbuilds.org/faq/

I'm not going to insist, as I have already workaround for the issue;) From my point of view, including keywords would help me keep a little bit smaller mess on my notes. But if you say it might make approval more cumbersome, then I said nothing. My few SlackBuilds per year is not much comparing to what you have to check during the approval. ___ SlackBuilds-users mailing list SlackBuilds-users@slackbuilds.org http://lists.slackbuilds.org/mailman/listinfo/slackbuilds-users Archives - http://lists.slackbuilds.org/pipermail/slackbuilds-users/ FAQ - http://slackbuilds.org/faq/ -- Pozdrawiam, Best regards, Andrzej Telszewski ___ SlackBuilds-users mailing list SlackBuilds-users@slackbuilds.org http://lists.slackbuilds.org/mailman/listinfo/slackbuilds-users Archives - http://lists.slackbuilds.org/pipermail/slackbuilds-users/ FAQ - http://slackbuilds.org/faq/

Yep, but that requires additional work before submitting and probably often I would submit the .info with my own fields;) Or just include a file called keywords.txt in the tarball. I don't think it would cause any problems for the approval process (someone correct me if I'm wrong). You'd just have to remember to paste its contents into the submission form, when it comes time to submit the build.-- I don't think it's a good idea. This way people would start to include whatever they liked and it would become a mess for SBo crew.
