Package: reprepro Version: 4.16.0-1 Severity: wishlist User: de...@kali.org Usertags: origin-kali
It would be nice if reprepro had the possibility to clone a distribution under a new codename/suite. Since this requires editing conf/distributions I would understand if you opted to only document a sane way to do this... and not do everything automatically (although to be fair, it would also be nice if conf/distributions could be replaced with a set of debian/distributions/<codename> files). I know of the snapshot command but here I really want a new distribution that can evolve and that has a name unrelated to the distribution being cloned. For now, I'll do this and assume it's ok: - cp -a dists/srcdist dists/targetdist (this ensures that I copies over also the installer files) - create "targetdist" in conf/distributions with a pull rule pulling everything from "srcdist" - do a "reprepro pull targetdist" -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers squeeze-lts APT policy: (500, 'squeeze-lts'), (500, 'oldoldstable'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable'), (500, 'oldstable'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.0.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.utf8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages reprepro depends on: ii libarchive13 3.1.2-11+b1 ii libbz2-1.0 1.0.6-8 ii libc6 2.19-18 ii libdb5.3 5.3.28-9 ii libgpg-error0 1.19-2 ii libgpgme11 1.5.1-6 ii liblzma5 5.1.1alpha+20120614-2+b3 ii pinentry-curses 0.9.4-2 ii zlib1g 1:1.2.8.dfsg-2+b1 Versions of packages reprepro recommends: ii apt 1.0.9.10 Versions of packages reprepro suggests: ii gnupg-agent 2.0.28-1 pn inoticoming <none> pn lzip <none> -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
