Hi, Can we generate a listing of core and opt ports on crux.nu, so that DistroWatch can update our list of packages? Does everyone feel that such a thing is a good idea? Also, what would the most appropriate name for this column be? "Ports"? "Current Ports"? If we put this file in a branch-independent location, and changed that cat command to "cat crux-$version/{core/*/Pkgfile,opt/*/Pkgfile}", then it shouldn't be much of a maintenance hassle. If anyone knows of a better way to generate this package list file, please feel free to implement it.

Attached is the requested file. It was created by "cat opt/*/Pkgfile core/*/Pkgfile | grep -B2 version= > /tmp/CRUX-core_opt-ports-20060412". How would you like to receive future updates? Is there a mechanism in
Do you generate it directly on the crux.nu server? If so, just place it somewhere where I can retrieve it once a day to update the CRUX page. That's how I do it with all other distributions. Ladislav ----- End forwarded message -----
