[Debichem-devel] FYI: QA scripts for debichem (taken from pkg-perl group)

[Daniel Leidert]

Hi,

The pkg-perl group wrote some QA scripts, that give a nice package
overview (newer upstream, bugs, ...). I've added them to our webspace
and set them up for the debichem project. The result can be seen here:

http://debichem.alioth.debian.org/cgi-bin/qareport.cgi

The files can be found
in /srv/alioth.debian.org/chroot/home/groups/debichem(/scripts/qa/).
Note that several files and directories are simply symlinked from
pkg-perl, so do not touch them. The configure file and the templates
file are of course not linked and can be touched if you feel to do so.

/srv/alioth.debian.org/chroot/home/groups/debichem/.debianqa/qa.conf
/srv/alioth.debian.org/chroot/home/groups/debichem/scripts/qa/templates
/srv/alioth.debian.org/chroot/home/groups/debichem/scripts/qa/htaccess

I have further created a cronjob that sends the output of the qareport
script to our list (will replace check_watch_files Perl script, which I
just wrote to increase my Perl skills :)). The output includes the BTS
state and more useful information (an example should already have
arrived). ATM the script will run daily, just to see, if everything
works as expected. I will turn the daily script run into a weekly one
soon, because our development isn't that fast and our package base is
not that large, that we need a daily overview :)

Comments are appreciated!

Regards, Daniel
