Dependencies view between arch packages
 

Hey

Would you be prepared to share the code. I would love to generate
something like this for work.

Otherwise wicked thx a lot.

Cheers Dietger

Dependencies view between arch packages
 

I ported part of my previous code as a function in Scott's python script.

The visualization of the dependencies requires pydot [1] and the red
links indicates circular packages. The code will be temporally
available at [2].

@Scott: please fell free to merge the differences and distribute.
There are probably some minor bugs yet.

@Hugo: thanks for bringing this issue to the list.

Thanks Cesar, I'm working on integrating it (you had added it into an
older version of the script :p). I'll probably use a passed argument
to generate the dependency tree image so people don't need pydot to
run the rest of the script.

Also, how long does it take to generate the image? I waited >15
minutes and then gave up. Did I screw up my integration of the code or
does it simply take a long time?

I'll hopefully post an updated version in the next couple of days,
just have a few other things to improve.

Scott
