I use a patched version of FEver for this; e.g. see http://ensc.de/fedora/Makefile.common http://ensc.de/fedora/fever-check.py.txt http://ensc.de/fedora/fever.py.txt http://ensc.de/fedora/fd-checkver Then: 1. put first three of them into ~/.fedora 2. latter one into ~/bin (and adjust $D to point to a tree with your packages) 3. add | include ~/.fedora/Makefile.common to your ~/.cvspkgrc 4. create 'verinfo' in every branch of your packages; for sample content see http://cvs.fedora.redhat.com/viewcvs/rpms/clamav/devel/?root=extras 5. execute 'make update-lastver' 6. create a cronjob like | 09 1-23/8 * * * $HOME/bin/fd-checkver | grep -v ^OK Enrico -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
