Packaging Update: pydf now in Fedora

Recently, my friend beandog introduced me to pydf. After playing with it for a couple of days, I decided I liked it enough that I packaged and included into Fedora. (If you are interested in other packages I maintain, you can check them out here.)

What is pydf?

$ yum info pydf

Name : pydf

Arch : noarch

Version : 9

Release : 3.fc15

Size : 14 k

Repo : updates

Summary : Fully colorized df clone written in python

URL : http://kassiopeia.juls.savba.sk/~garabik/software/pydf/

License : Public Domain

Description : pydf displays the amount of used and available space on your file systems,

: just like df, but in colors. The output format is completely customizable.

I was also able to send in a patch for the python 2.4 version to the upstream author. He was very happy to receive and apply the fix. The patch is also available in the source rpm.

A nice looking screenshot of the output from pydf is below:

Cheers,
