Package: debbugs Severity: wishlist [01:12:52] <dondelelcaro> Tincho: what exactly are you trying to do? [01:13:18] <Tincho> dondelelcaro: I maintain the scripts that build this page: http://pkg-perl.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/qareport.cgi [01:13:52] <Tincho> for that, I construct a list of source packages I'm interested in, and then call get_bugs(src => [EMAIL PROTECTED]) [01:14:28] <Tincho> then, for retrieving the status of each bug, get_status(@list_of_bugs) [01:14:57] <dondelelcaro> oh, and you just want to know which bugs were retunred by which source package [01:15:04] <Tincho> dondelelcaro: exactly
There are two things that could be done: adding a "source" key to the hash returned by get_status, or enabling get_bugs to return a hash indexed on the requested source package. The latter seems easier to implement, although it would mean that I still have to make many queries; the former would be ideal for me: two queries would return all the information I need. Nowadays I'm just doing the two queries thing, because 99% of the perl modules have the same source package name as the (only) binary package. But I've just found that this wasn't working for the few packages that differ. -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (901, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.23-1-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=es_AR.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=es_AR.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
