NAME

6       ltnu - lists packages of a maintainer ordered by last upload
7

SYNOPSIS

9       env DEBEMAIL=maintainer ltnu [-m]
10
11       ltnu [-m] maintainer

DESCRIPTION

16       ltnu (Long Time No Upload) queries the public mirror of the Ultimate
17       Debian Database (udd-mirror.debian.net) for all uploads of packages by
18       the given uploader or maintainer and displays them ordered by the last
19       upload of that package to Debian Unstable, oldest uploads first.
20
21       Its primary purpose is to check which of your own or your team's
22       packages haven't been uploaded for a long time and likely need a
23       packaging revamp. It's less suitable for MIA team purposes as it
24       doesn't make a difference with regards to who actually uploaded a
25       package.
26

OPTIONS

28       -m  Only search in the Maintainer field and ignore the Uploaders field.
29

PARAMETERS

31       The maintainer/uploader to query can be given either by setting
32       $DEBEMAIL as environment variable or as single commandline parameter.
33
34       If a commandline parameter does not contain an "@", "@debian.org" is
35       appended, e.g. "ltnu abe" queries for "abe@debian.org".
36
37       Exceptions are some shortcuts for common, long e-mail addresses. So far
38       implemented shortcuts:

40       pkg-gnustep  pkg-gnustep-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org

DEPENDENCIES

68       ltnu uses the PostgreSQL client command psql and hence needs Debian's
69       postgresql-client package to be installed.
