Launchpad itself

published versions on ...ubuntu/+source/<spackagename>

Asked by StefanPotyra on 2008-07-11

Hi,

I'm a little bit confused comparing
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xserver-xorg-driver-ati/
with
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/min12xxw/

my interpretation was, that xserver-xorg-driver-ati was removed after dapper. Strange enough, there's a later upload for edgy, which doesn't show a "released" entry.
Also, it seems like xserver-xorg-driver-ati was still present in later versions, as I have it on my system, which is not older than a gutsy installation. Neither rmadison nor packages.ubuntu.com support this though.

Cheers,
   Stefan.

hm... maybe my system is a little bit older than I though (damn, how time goes by). Nonetheless, why is there no edgy entry?

To rephrase the question: "how can I determine if a package has been removed from the archive"

StefanPotyra (sistpoty) said : #4

ok, LP is doing the right thing. the package was removed from edgy (afaict) and hence there's no release entry in edgy.

Sorry for the noise.

P.S.: I'll cheer a little bit (I won't tell you why, just look at the wiki page and the history who added/changed what *g*).
