Re: debian-ammonia debs available



Hello Grahame,

I tried it and I like it.  Good work.

Nevertheless I have two minor suggestions:

1) I maintain a local archive, generated by apt-move.
This archive only contains "Packages.gz" files, not
uncompressed "Packages".  Debian-ammonia complains here,
that it cannot find the Packages file.  Maybe it can be
modified to also look for compressed Packages files?

2) I think the "conflicts cannot be satisfied" messages
are pretty useless.  It is no problem, if an archive contains
conflicting packages, because not all packages of an archive
will be installed at once.  So maybe the messages about
conflicts should be turned of by default?

Otherwise I found the program useful.

Thanks,
Jochen
