Method Details

get_package_info(self, package, factory)

source code

Get information about the given package. Add zero or more implementations using the factory (typically at most two will be added; the currently installed version and the latest available).

Parameters:

package - package name (e.g. "gimp")
factory - function for creating new DistributionImplementation objects from IDs

Overrides: Distribution.get_package_info

(inherited documentation)

get_score(self, disto_name)

source code

Indicate how closely the host distribution matches this one. The <package-implementation> with the highest score is passed to Distribution.get_package_info. If several elements get the same score, get_package_info is called for all of them.

Parameters:

distribution - a distribution name

Returns: int | None

an integer, or None if there is no match at all

Overrides: Distribution.get_score
