I have no idea about the technical details of this script, but the following would seem like interesting improvements: - Have it run daily, if possible. As you said, its pretty much out-of-date already. - Could the list of open RFS be checked against http://ftp-master.debian.org/new.html and maybe, possibly using UDD, against the list of packages already in the archives? If the version can be extracted from the RFS, then a check against UDD could help cleanup such nanoblogger-extra cases. Best regards, Michael
