Hi
I think this option could be removed in favour of the routine automatically check the existence of a .sce.lst file.
-
As I am often editing my file lists and can't remember what I put in any particular meta extension, I agree.
I think perhaps the -f option could bring up a menu that shows the sce.lst files in the sce directory, and then you could choose one to update or import. But -f is also usually known as the option "force", so maybe we can remove it, or better name it to -l, as in list. I will ponder it some more.

hi friends,
to change -f to -l seems to be reasonable,
but please, don't remove an option that perhaps someone relies on...?

How about this, we change the -f flag to -l, which makes more sense. But if you specify a file list, it is used, and then importsce creates an sce.lst file in the sce directory. Then, re-importing the sce will automatically obey the sce.lst file and bring in it's contents. This way, you don't have to create a file list name that is not already a Debian or preuilt package as is the current case. Use the -l option to specify any package list, ie "importsce /home/me/filelist" and then importsce will create /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/sce/filelist.sce.lst. Upon re-importing filelist or beforehand creating /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/sce/filelist.sce.lst the file list of packages /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/sce/filelist.sce.lst is imported. However, if you specify another file list, as in "importsce /home/me/thisfile", then the contents of importsce /home/me/thisfile will be imported and it will become the new /etc/sysconfig/tcedir/sce/thisfile.sce.lst

Implemented, see the release threads.
