[Popcon-developers] Bug#395926: Please break down package popularity by architecture

[Goswin Brederlow]

Package: popularity-contest
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

I would like to know what software is used on what arch and to what
extend. Surely there is a big difference between amd64, i386, ppc
usage and m68k, arm, s390. It would be nice to see what packages are
important for each port for 2 reasons:

1. Organize the CD/DVD images for a port better
2. To help m68k and arm (and any other port that falls behind) to sort
packages by use and compile users favorites first.


I believe popcon already gathers and sends in enough information to do
this, it just needs to be archived in more detail and provided on the
webpage. So this bugreport is more against popcon.debian.org than the
source.

MfG
