sarnold | blahdeblah: hah, that sentence has always struck me as strange. Launchpad of course tracks when packages are copied or moved into the -updates or -security pockets, and launchpad queries could answer that question. The archive's dists/focal-security/main/binary-amd64/Packages.gz sorts of files get updated every time a package is moved into or out of the pocket, and snapshots of these could be | 19:36 |

sarnold | blahdeblah: my gut feeling is that they didn't want to write a tool for it and didn't way to say so | 19:37 |

Odd_Bloke | IIUC, the baseline is from when the _advisory_ was published, not when the packages became available. It looks like there is a specific file which contains this metadata, which they parse: https://en.opensuse.org/openSUSE:Standards_Rpm_Metadata_UpdateInfo | 19:55 |
Odd_Bloke | So I think the equivalent would be USN metadata, not packaging metadata. | 19:55 |
Odd_Bloke | And I _think_ those metadata files come from the repositories that the packages come from too: USN data (via OVAL, most likely) would be from a different source (and so might not be valid if you aren't using a full and up-to-date mirror of the archive?). | 20:02 |

rbasak | Odd_Bloke, sarnold: yeah I think the information they need is available by API or other sources, but they expect to consume it only from apt metadata or something, and it's not there. | 20:15 |
sarnold | I wouldn't blame them for not wanting tens of millions of instances of that implementation | 20:20 |
