Hi everyone,

I wanna build a list of all available `Packages-puppy-*` files, and `Packages-ubuntu-*`, `Packages-debian-*`, etc, etc ...

In case you're wondering, it for the thing here: http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=685097#685097

I would like the file itself, and the URL(s) which it uses..
Cos I am building a list in this format:

name|extension|repofile|url1|url2|url3|url4|...

Example:

lucid|pet|Packages-puppy-lucid-official|http://blah|http://blah2| ....

I do not know the naming conventions or available 'Packages-*' files/repos/versions for all the ubuntu and debian (and other?) pups ....

I also don't fancy downloading and browsing every recent pup...

Hope you can help,
Cheers.

No takers? Anyone could do it...

Your Package-puppy-* and Package-ubuntu-* (etc) files are in /root/.packages/ (it's a hidden folder)..

All you need to do is copy the file, add a .gz extension (to make it a fake .gz file for this forum), then upload here, with the URL that is used with that repo...

I would be grateful... As I could get most files myself, but it'd take a while, and I would still not know which URLs are used with each file/repo...

Hi scot,

Do you need this information for Wary also? I'm thinking you probably already have it.

I'm not attaching the actual file as it changes often, you can get it from ibiblio site above ....

Btw, thanks for your excellent SJPPLOG Smile

cheers!

Hi guys,

Thank Monsie, but I already have the wary stuff, you're right..

Jamesbond, thank for the list, and you're welcome for SJPPLOG.. What are you using it for?

I had a few more features planned for it, like adding optional support for a nice jquery csv to graph thing, etc... but I though no one ever used it... it seems not to work right on the monkey webserver as well, which is a shame, cos monkey is tiny and works quite well generally..

BTW if anyone has debian repo files and URLs, old and new debian versions, that would be great...
