Bug 94803 – package lists for a single day do not contain all packages

• Product: Gentoo Infrastructure
• Status: RESOLVED INVALID

[Description Andre Hinrichs 2005-06-02 02:19:37 UTC]

The time handling in package lists is buggy. When you click on a single weekday
in the online package database you get a list which starts at midnight but ends
at 21 o'clock (9pm). So the day lists do not contain all packages since the next
day starts at midnight again.
It would also be nice to see the time zone...

I cannot confirm this.  If you look at
http://packages.gentoo.org/daily/2005/10/02/ the first entry starts at 00:50
while the last entry is at 20:36 (the entries are listed
reverse-chronologically).  Unless you talking about the current day.  The
listing for the current day (today)  will always only list the 20 most recent
entries (equivalent to just going to http://packages.gentoo.org/  This is
because the day is not over yet, so showing all the packages for that day will
always be incomplete.  This is not a bug but a "feature" and the behavior is not
likely to change in the 1.x codebase.

For example, linuxtv-dvb-1.1.1-r2 is updated at Fri Dec 9 21:25:28 2005 (
http://packages.gentoo.org/ebuilds/?linuxtv-dvb-1.1.1-r2 ), but
http://packages.gentoo.org/daily/2005/12/09/ does not contain linuxtv-dvb.
Today is Dec 10, not Dec 9.

More examples:
http://packages.gentoo.org/ebuilds/?mod_backhand-1.2.2
http://packages.gentoo.org/daily/2005/10/29/
http://packages.gentoo.org/ebuilds/?apache-2.0.55
http://packages.gentoo.org/daily/2005/10/22/

However, http://packages.gentoo.org/daily/2005/12/08/ contains an entry at Thu
Dec 8 23:05:56 2005 (dansguardian 2.8.0.6-r1).  I can't detect the condition of
the bug.

Either I'm not understanding this report or I just don't see it.  Open again if you can clarify.
