automatically tracking just a few unstable packages
My system is mostly bo, but I've installed a couple of packages out of
hamm. I have my dselect access method set to ftp and pointing at the
bo Packages files. I'd like a way to know when the hamm packages I'm
tracking are updated. Does the system have a way to do that?
If not I'll write a script for it. I'm thinking to compare the installed
packages with the versions listed in the available file. For each package
which has a newer version installed than is available the script will
check the unstable packages files and report any newer versions. Is there
a more direct way to do what I want?
