nkj feels I should warn people that large image files are linked to ahead.
Note: linuxconf is not perfect. The standard modules work, but some (most? all?) of the extra modules complain of missing config info if you tell linuxcong to load them. Furthermore, none of the init script changing features are done by the spell. I toasted my system trying them so I disabled them.
I would put the linuxconf spell at an ALPHA level. It will not break your system... probably.
depends_check.sh `find $GRIMOIRE -maxdepth 2 -mindepth 2 | awk -F '/' '{print $NF;}' | grep -v MAINTAINER`The newspell tar also includes a script called quickList.sh. It is a faster way of checking to see if a spell exists if you are checking for several spells. Uses a binary search for the first letter, then a linear search through all spells with the same first letter. Perhaps you can find a better way of doing this, I cannot.
And as always, if you find a way to improve on my stuff, feel free to send me a patch. If you have a suggestion but can't write it yourself, send it to me and I'll see what I can do.
listLibDepends.sh is a script to find missing and extra dependencies in spells. It uses information from ldd to find most of the things the binaries need at runtime. Please note, it doesn't know anything about compile time dependencies, and doesn't know anything about programs that use dlopen and friends so it is not in any way perfect, but should help find the most common problems.
listLibDepends.txt is example output from 2005-06-08 when run with --elf-indirect on my whole installed spell list.
