How about this project? http://brion.inria.fr/anla/index edos has a utility for checking for uninstallable packages very quickly. edos-debcheck is the package name I believe. They are using it to generate statistics for the Debian archives. They use a weather motif to indicate how many packages are uninstallable at present. For instance here is the past performance of unstable http://brion.inria.fr/anla/health?bundle=U&architecture=i386 compared with testing http://brion.inria.fr/anla/health?bundle=T&architecture=i386 It doesn't work on bug reports as you wanted, but it can give an idea about how badly unstable is currently broken with regard to installation. Or how about the number of RC bug reports against sid and etch? Gives some impression of how close to release etch is, although it has it's problems. http://bugs.debian.org/release-critical/graph.png James -- James Westby -- GPG Key ID: B577FE13 -- http://jameswestby.net/ seccure key - (3+)k7|M*edCX/.A:n*N!>|&7U.L#9E)Tu)T0>AM - secp256r1/nistp256 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
