Hi, It's been an annoyance during all releases: this script processes all packages in turn, and that takes quite a while. I've tried to make it run in parallel by defining a function and calling parallel on it, but it would need a few other functions and variables to be exported as well, so I've taken an easier route and split the interesting part into a calc-release-status-helper script, to be called for each and every package. Now, calc-release-status will treat packages in a parallel manner, using as many cores as available, and it now finishes in under 3 minutes on my d-i development machine, which makes me quite happy. :) Other consequence: output will no longer be sorted by package name due to parallelism. Current errors are: E: error getting madison info for partman-newworld for 'testing' E: error getting madison info for partman-zfs for 'testing' E: error getting madison info for prep-installer for 'testing' E: error getting madison info for quik-installer for 'testing' E: error getting madison info for yaboot-installer for 'testing' partman-zfs is kfreebsd-* only; others are powerpc-specific, which is no longer a release architecture. Christian, which update would be the best one to reflect those changes? Add a minus sign after those packages in packages_list? Or remove them from there entirely? Note: It's still on my todo list to make it run on dillon regularly, instead of waiting until release day to possibly notice missing git pushes (see bug report #762055). KiBi.
