Just wondering aloud. Should it become possible to do this via dpkg (or by adjusting emdebian-tools), I was wondering what people think: Remove (or reduce to a single line) the long description of every Emdebian package during the build so that the Packages.gz file to download to the device is *much* smaller than a normal Debian one *and* the processing of the dpkg database and apt-cache would be dramatically improved on devices with smaller amounts of RAM. It's not a question for now (we don't have enough packages) but is it worth investigating for the future? -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.data-freedom.org/ http://www.nosoftwarepatents.com/ http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
