Hello,<br><br>i am trying to maintain a port of emacs that accesses the emacs cvs repository to<br>get the sources. however regarding versioning i was trying to be keen and inserted<br><br>version=cvs-$(date %G)<br>release=$(date +%j)
<br><br>on the long run - giving me a new version each year and a new release everyday<br>i ask for it. however prt-get was misbehaving and eating more and more memory.<br>strace showed that is was sitting in some sort of loop...
<br><br>is this at all a good idea?! i guess not from a methodical point of view. But<br>what about prt-get?<br><br>sincerely<br>matthias<br>
