If you want to get the first part of a string (in the following example a), you should use the partition method of the string, as it is the fastest way (and it also gives you the delimiter in [1] and the other part of the string in [2]): In [1]: a = ‘a/b/…

The next release of debimg (0.0.3) will be the first release supporting splitting packages over multiple disks.

debimg 0.0.2 has a new high speed dependency resolver and support for local repositories.

A backport of gnash 0.8.2 is available in my PPA at deb <a href="http://ppa.launchpad.net/juliank/ubuntu">http://ppa.launchpad.net/juliank/ubuntu</a> <span>gutsy</span> main I wanted to try it, but I had no time to compile it, so I uploaded it to the PPA.

debimg’s cdimage is now online at http://jak-linux.org/cdimage/, and contains daily-builds of Debian testing netinst disks for i386 and amd64 architectures. debimg is a new software which aims to replace debian-cd.

Colin Watson today uploaded casper 1.118, now supporting aufs.
