Hello, I've noticed that apt-xapian-index in lenny is 0.13, I thought it was 0.15. There is a nontrivial change introduced in 0.15, which implements appropriate handling of concurrent updates. This is quite important because it allows a package manager to install apt-xapian-index and then run an update showing progress, without conflicting (actually, cooperating) with the index update automatically run with the package's postinst. It's a nontrivial change, but it's been there since August with no apparent issues (except for #506766 which was fixed in 0.16 with a rather simple patch). On the other hand, 0.13 has bigger problems (#509819). Ciao, Enrico -- GPG key: 1024D/797EBFAB 2000-12-05 Enrico Zini <enrico@debian.org>
