Gday, Is there a Debian tool that will help me regenerate Packages.gz from a pool of packages? I can use dpkg-scanpackages in a script but since i have woody and sid packages in the same pool directory, the latest version is written to Packages.gz
Script goes something like PKGDIR=`find pool -type d -print | uniq` for PKG in ${PKGDIR}; do if [ -d "${PKG}" ]; then chmod a+r ${PKG} echo Making Packages.gz echo dpkg-scanpackages ${PKG} /dev/null | gzip -9c >> dists/stable/main/binary-i386/Packages.gz fi -- Rene Cunningham DCLabs Pty Ltd http://www.dclabs.com.au ---------------------------------------- Netscape is not a newsreader, and probably never shall be. -- Tom Christiansen -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
