===What is it?===<br />
<br />
Lets Fink read only new .info files instead of all of them. Also lets Fink load just the part of the package DB that it needs.<br />
<br />
===Testing it===<br />
<br />
* parameters<br />
** index (write only) or other load (read/write)<br />
** root or non-root<br />
** different versions of fink<br />
** with/without autoindex<br />
** full or partial or proxy run<br />
<br />
* race conditions<br />
** run multiple finks at once<br />
<br />
* exceptional cases<br />
** rsync: files updated to earlier mtime than last index<br />
** FinkCommander: needs whole DB, caching<br />
** forget and re-load<br />
<br />
* missing stuff and dealing with it<br />
** index.db<br />
** proxies.db<br />
** finkinfo dir, or files within<br />
<br />
* package has<br />
** proxy stuff (name, version)<br />
** loadable stuff (dumpinfo)<br />
