Re: how to retrieve the pacakge URI and architecture from python-apt
hi,
in my program 'debdelta-upgrade', I need to see which debian packages
need to be upgrade, and for each on, know the complete URI , somthing as
http://ftp.it.debian.org/debian/pool/main/m/memstat/memstat_0.5_i386.deb
I was helped by M.Vogt with a snippet that s in this email; but
with the new python-apt in unstable, the following snippet stopped working.
How do I change it? (I tried to read the docs, but I do not know enaough
of APT )
thanks a lot in advance
a.
