For a couple of months now I am using a python script to automate the downloading of packages for windows. as it might by of interest for more people, I have now cleaned it up a bit. See attached file. Keep in mind that although very much usable, this is still work in progress.
I love this script. I used it on Linux with python 3.1 and p7zip as well as on Cygwin with the python 3.1 from cygwinports.org and the p7zip that comes with Cygwin. I just wanted to ask you how hard would it be to add two possibilities: 1) Download all packages in a noarch part of a repository (each one without dependencies) and convert them to zip. 2) Add an option which would be triggering a creation of a kind of manifest inside a zip that would list the dependencies and provides of the given package, naturally, if it is mingw32-<somepackage> only <somepackage> and if it is mingw32(<somedll>) only <somedll>. Such a script would maybe allow us to be able to run it regularily and provide zip files for download. I am ~zero in python, so asking you :) Thanks again F. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse-mingw+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse-mingw+help@opensuse.org
