LTNU(1) LTNU(1)
NAME
ltnu - lists packages of a maintainer ordered by last upload
SYNOPSIS
env DEBEMAIL=maintainer ltnu [-m]
ltnu [-m] maintainer
ltnu --help
DESCRIPTION
ltnu (Long Time No Upload) queries the public mirror of the Ultimate Debian Database
(udd-mirror.debian.net) for all uploads of packages by the given uploader or maintainer
and displays them ordered by the last upload of that package to Debian Unstable, oldest
uploads first.
Its primary purpose is to check which of your own or your team's packages haven't been
uploaded for a long time and likely need a packaging revamp. It's less suitable for MIA
team purposes as it doesn't make a difference with regards to who actually uploaded a
package.
OPTIONS
-m Only search in the Maintainer field and ignore the Uploaders field.
PARAMETERS
The maintainer/uploader to query can be given either by setting $DEBEMAIL as environment
variable or as single commandline parameter.
If a commandline parameter does not contain an "@", "@debian.org" is appended, e.g. "ltnu
abe" queries for "abe AT debian.org".
Exceptions are some shortcuts for common, long e-mail addresses. So far implemented
shortcuts:
pkg-gnustep pkg-gnustep-maintainers AT lists.org
pkg-perl pkg-perl-maintainers AT lists.org
pkg-zsh pkg-zsh-devel AT lists.org
qa packages AT qa.org
ENVIRONMENT
The following environment variables are honoured:
DEBEMAIL
Used for querying if no parameter is given.
PAGER
Used by psql as pager.
EXAMPLE
$ ltnu pkg-zsh

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