Hi.
Is there any way to see the list of source packages without binaries? I'm trying to get the game ProjectXenocide running under Paldo. For this I need to install ogre3d and several other packages. One of ogre's dependencies is zziplib. I checked whether it was available using paldo packages search engine. I didn't get any results. So I downloaded zziplib tar.bz2, wrote a spec and issued upkg-build command. It turned out that instead of building local package upkg downloaded source package from server(experimental branch) and built it. So it turned out that there had already been a spec for zziplib, but no binary was available.
So tu sum up. Is there any way to get a list of packages that are on server, but haven't been built yet?

The paldo package search lists all packages, whether a binary is available or not. zziplib is not available in paldo; I don't know what happened on your system, it surely didn't download zziplib from paldo.org.
BTW: The experimental branch is currently only used for toolchain testing (gcc 4.1 / glibc 2.4).

Zitat

So could this be that upkg treated my local repo as experimental? Because when I compiled zziplib it said that zziplib was from experimental branch. There was the word "experimental" in brackets while building. That's why I thought the package came from experimental. If that's so, sorry for my stupid question

Paldo compiled it from your local Repo. When you use Experimental as branch all packages gets compiled for experimental.
