Bug#460618: ITP: falcon -- Repository manager for .deb packages



Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist
Owner: Scott Kitterman <scott@kitterman.com>


* Package name    : falcon
  Version         : 2.0.5
  Upstream Author : Dennis Kaarsemaker <dennis@ubuntu.com>
* URL             : http://falcon.kaarsemaker.net/
* License         : GPL v3
  Programming Lang: Python
  Description     : Repository manager for .deb packages

 Falcon is a tool that generates the repository meta-information (such as
 package listings and release files) in order to transform a set of packages
 into a proper repository.
 .
 Features
  * Every subdir of the pool is automatically a pocket
  * Support for metacomponents to make it easier to use
  * GPG signed Release files
  * Easy template based HTML output for repository indices
  * Morgueing of old packages
  * Easy support for complete and partial mirrors
  * Easy creation of .iso files
  * Easy import of sources from other debian repositories

Note: I'm aware another ITP was filed earlier today that indicated it would be
packaged as falcon.  That's a different (unrelated) program which I understand
will be packaged as falconpl.
