Hello, I am [waiting] for a reply from apt developers in order to clarify whether there is a Pre-Download hook which works exactly as the Pre-Install hook. [waiting]: <https://bugs.debian.org/80123#73> An alternative strategy could perhaps be the use of [json hooks], which however seem to require a heavy redesign of all the interaction between apt-listbugs and libapt-pkg. Frankly speaking, I do not know when I will get around to doing such a redesign... Sorry about that! :-( [json hooks]: <https://salsa.debian.org/apt-team/apt/blob/master/doc/json-hooks-protocol.md> -- http://www.inventati.org/frx/ There's not a second to spare! To the laboratory! ..................................................... Francesco Poli . GnuPG key fpr == CA01 1147 9CD2 EFDF FB82 3925 3E1C 27E1 1F69 BFFE
