Revision as of 12:16, 11 April 2010

Here's one I made earlier...


I think it would be good for the community to have some idea of the install base for applications. So I wrote a very quick and dirty way for people to submit their installed package list.

Try it with the following (will clobber anything called pop in /usr/bin):

wget http://www.timwise.co.uk/om/pop/pop.tar.gz tar -C / pop.tar.gz

then submit your package list with

/usr/bin/pop

You can view submissions at http://www.timwise.co.uk/om/pop/submissions/


The code is at http://github.com/timabell/popularity improvements would be welcome, as would inclusion in the various distros. Perhaps if it works out this could be hosted by the various distro servers.
