As it seems it works as expected. popularity-contest already gathers this data as part of the data that it sends to Debian. Maybe a tool that operates on the data that it gathers and tries to find packages that aren't being used to give a list to the local administrator would be an interesting approach for this? Ideally, it should filter that list against the dependency structure and only report leaf packages. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
