Is there a webviewer for the linuxbbq repos?

Unread post by Potatohead » Wed Nov 20, 2013 10:58 pm

Is there a webviewer for the own linuxbbq repos? I mean, just like you can see the packages in

http://packages.debian.org/unstable/ or
http://packages.siduction.org/ or, outside of the Debian world:
https://packages.gentoo.org/ and
https://www.archlinux.org/packages/

Of course the package manager will show what's in the repo (no problem with that), but I wonder: is there a web page with the packages? Plans? Or would this be too time consuming?


Thanks :-)

No, there is not or not that I know about. :) But it is basically Debian/Siduction anyway apart from the home brewed tools that you can also find on Github.

Are you volunteering to create and maintain a webviewer, potatohead? We like volunteers.

There is one as CLI tool:

"search"

an alias to APT's cache search. If this is not enough, you can use apt-file's search ("ins apt-file").

LinuxBBQ repos? There are exactly two packages in it.

Repo maintainer. The most fucking job. And no, I won't let anybody to 'play around' with the website. Sorry. Except you let me upload my Concentration Camp avatar again.

if you really want a web viewer, how about a sticky on this forum? Edited any time a new package comes up, by the maintainer.
Seems appropriate and simple.

I'll create that section with RSS feed update - similar to the upgrade warnings - when it's ready. Right now there are no updates for the BBQ repos.
