Others
------
+ o use postgres 7.2's built-in stat features to figure out how indices are used etc.
+
+ o neve shouldn't be using location, she should run down suites instead
+
+ o halle needs to know about udebs
+
o by default hamstring katie's mail sending so that she won't send
anything until someone edits a script; she's been used far too
much to send spam atm :(
o morgue needs auto-cleaning (?)
+ o saffron: two modes, all included, seperate
+ o saffron: add non-US
+ o saffron: add ability to control components, architectures, archives, suites
+ o saffron: add key to expand header
+
================================================================================
Less Urgent
o Logging [mostly done] (todo: rhona (hard), .. ?)
- o jennifer is leaking file descriptors..
-
- o the tar extractor class doesn't need to be redone for each package
+ o jennifer: the tar extractor class doesn't need to be redone for each package
o reverse of source-must-exist; i.e. binary-for-source-must-not-exist
o REJECT reminders in shania.
@ backup of report (?)
@ backup of changes.tgz (?)
+ o --help doesn't work without /etc/katie/katie.conf (or similar) at
+ least existing.
+
+ o rename andrea (clashes with existing andrea)...
+
* Harder:
o interrupting of stracing jennifer causes exceptions errors from apt_inst calls
o Fix stuff to look in sensible places for libs and config file in debian package (?)
