[Piuparts-devel] Bug#673919: piuparts-report - Release Section object when section processing complete

[Dave Steele]

Package: piuparts
Version: 0.44
Tags: patch
User: debian-qa at lists.debian.org
Usertags: piuparts

piuparts-report is a bit of a resource hog, both in terms of RAM usage
and clock time. There is a loop in the main routine that maintains an
array of Section objects, which is never accessed. Removing this array
would permit those objects to be garbage collected earlier.
