Are you interested in DEHS (whether a given package is up-to-date or
not), or in the raw debian/watch content?
I think two fields of information are needed:
boolean is_up_to_date
text upstream_version
from packages table if you have
package, version .
I would like to know what degree of normalisation you might have in mind.
It depends on your data source. I'm not familiar with DDTP. If (package,
version) is enough as a primary key, let's just use that.
It should be enough - but I'll verify with DDTP people.
component is main, contrib, or non-free for Debian.
Sure. But DDTP translates *only* descriptions of packages in main.
But if we use the package,version key this question is void anyway.
Sure, see http://svn.debian.org/viewsvn/collab-qa/udd/udd/. The lintian,
debtags and popcon importers are good & simple examples.
OK, I think I'll start with a suggestion for
http://ftp-master.debian.org/new.822
and sort out things for DDTP in parallel with debian-i18n.
Kind regards
Andreas.
