	The bot apt on openprojects.net IRC #debian has a handy database
of the contents of all Debian packages.  A nice optional feature for
lintian would be to check whether any of the files in the package are
owned by any other packages using a similar database, avoiding possible
conflicts.

This doesn't actually seem practical.  The bots* do not maintain any sort of
database of other files owned.  They run dpkg --contents every time they
need too.  Such a database would be huge to keep....

Still, I'll look into it.. I just got an idea... Maybe if you download,
independently, the Contents file from ftp... I think that lists the same
thing... But it wouldn't be a standard part of Lintian.. just an add-on if
you're so inclined.

I will look...

	I was thinking that the database could be centrally maintained,
say at debian.org, and queried remotely.  This would be another reason for
it to be optional, since it would require a net connection.  The database
could of course also be used to provide the find functionality of the bots
on the web page.

I was thinking about working on a patch for this, and I'm not sure that there's
enough data in the Contents file to do this.  Specifically, the packages in the
Contents files are not versioned.  A package could have a correct versioned
conflicts with another package, and it would still set off a test based on the
Contents file.  At best, I think this could be a warning (possible conflicting
file).

First of all how do you plan to update the testing package every day?
They should reflect the testing Contents, right?

You also have to release a new version every day. That is an 8MB deb
per arch and a source containing all 13 archs. That is 208MB updates
per day and suite. ~400MB for testing and unstable every day.

Ok, you can probably use the Contents-i386.gz and diffs for other
archs bringing it down to maybe 200MB a day. Then use a different
compression and maybe get it to 100Mb.

Still way way to much data on a daily basis.


I think the only sensible and simple thing to do is to provide a zsync
file for the Contents files (zsync can 'look into' gz to rsync just
the changes). Then every user can use a cron job to zsync the file to
his system on a daily, weekly, monthly, whatever basis. zsync uses the
http protocol so any http mirror carrying the Contents files will do
as source.

MfG
        Goswin

First of all how do you plan to update the testing package every day?
They should reflect the testing Contents, right?

You also have to release a new version every day. That is an 8MB deb
per arch and a source containing all 13 archs. That is 208MB updates
per day and suite. ~400MB for testing and unstable every day.

Ok, you can probably use the Contents-i386.gz and diffs for other
archs bringing it down to maybe 200MB a day. Then use a different
compression and maybe get it to 100Mb.

Still way way to much data on a daily basis.


I think the only sensible and simple thing to do is to provide a zsync
file for the Contents files (zsync can 'look into' gz to rsync just
the changes). Then every user can use a cron job to zsync the file to
his system on a daily, weekly, monthly, whatever basis. zsync uses the
http protocol so any http mirror carrying the Contents files will do
as source.

What about creating a package to do this automatically (using debconf to ask how
often to run)? It could be a really small package (just one shell script and
docs) and lintian et al could depend/recommend/suggest it.

That would be ideal..

Contents of whatever is installed, preferably.

Are architectures Contents ever significantly different?

Hadn't thought of that.

So maybe an debian-contents-updater package.  It contains some cronjob
entry, maybe a debconf question, or it uses /etc/defaults/.  Yes, that
would work nicely, I think.

Package: lintian
Version: 1.11.2
Severity: wishlist

	The bot apt on openprojects.net IRC #debian has a handy database
of the contents of all Debian packages.  A nice optional feature for
lintian would be to check whether any of the files in the package are
owned by any other packages using a similar database, avoiding possible
conflicts.

Package: lintian
Version: 1.11.2
Severity: wishlist

	The bot apt on openprojects.net IRC #debian has a handy database
of the contents of all Debian packages.  A nice optional feature for
lintian would be to check whether any of the files in the package are
owned by any other packages using a similar database, avoiding possible
conflicts.
