Public bug reported:
Hello everyone,
apt_check.py has the ability to be used as a Python module:
[...]
def run(options=None):
[...]
# return the number of upgrades (if its used as a module)
return(upgrades,security_updates)
[...]
But (due to packaging), it's not possible to simple import it like
from apt_check import run
Would it be possible to fix that? Importing the module via full path is
possible, but not really good coding style imho. I'm working on a Qt/QML
version of update-notifier/update-manager for LXQt and maybe other DEs
and don't want to reinvent the wheel.
Thanks for your time and attention!
