SQLite is becoming unmanageable for the toolchain repository. It appears all but impossible to get reliable synchronisation between the binary reprepro raw data and a sqlite database. It continually creates duplicate records and misses entire records in the update. It needs constant maintenance with manual reprepro commands and frequent removal and recreation of the entire sqlite database. I need help to implement a different method - direct from the apt-cache via NorthernCross (in a branch above apt-cross in SVN). This also needs to be implemented for the search pages but I don't see how that can be done easily through PHP so it would mean creating a whole new set of perl scripts for a cgi-bin. This is taking far too much of my time. I'd rather not lose the 'live data' aspect of our current scripts but if someone else wants to take this on, I'll be happy to get back to other tasks. -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.data-freedom.org/ http://www.nosoftwarepatents.com/ http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
