Is comparing dates of different changelogs a serious usecase? Given that it doesn't neccessarily bear a relation to the date of upload, particularly if a package build is heavily tested before uploading... Upload dates themselves are somewhere else in the system... debian-changes-dist@l.d.o, or something like that? _That_ should be easy to compare, because it's a single chronological log, formatted like a set of emails. Granted, those are not exactly upload dates... But they're prolly closer to what you think you want to know. -- ----------------------------------------------------------- Paul "TBBle" Hampson, B.Sc, LPI, MCSE On-hiatus Asian Studies student, ANU The Boss, Bubblesworth Pty Ltd (ABN: 51 095 284 361) Paul.Hampson@Pobox.Com Of course Pacman didn't influence us as kids.
