Hello Michael,

The package/version format is still wrong.
Could you fix this in the next SRU?

Regards,
Arnold Czeman

Hello,

I have a little problem with the newest version of pam source package on Bionic.
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pam/1.1.8-3.6ubuntu2.18.04.2/<https://nam05.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fbugs.launchpad.net%2Fubuntu%2F%2Bsource%2Fpam%2F1.1.8-3.6ubuntu2.18.04.2%2F&data=02%7C01%7CArnold.Czeman%40oneidentity.com%7C4c74e483b3c844323a2b08d8531c0d2b%7C91c369b51c9e439c989c1867ec606603%7C0%7C0%7C637350727237917170&sdata=TO5%2FcquslSMlK94UrM%2FIorsBLxQQUiSpSR2021FQimM%3D&reserved=0>
I would like to import to a git repo with gbp tool, but this package seems to 
have
a wrong a package format.
The earlier version of this package were non-native debian packages, they had 
extra
archives which name match a *.diff.gz or a *.debian.tar.* pattern. They had
two component version string (where a '-' concatenates the upstream version and 
the
debian version).

Right, the package should be non-native. But for some reason it is. All 
versions in bionic since release have been native though.

The current version of this pam package has no extra archives, so it seems to 
be a
native debian package, but it cannot be native package because it has a wrong 
version
string format for this package format.
I have found a description of the debian source package formats here:
https://wiki.debian.org/DebianMentorsFaq#What_is_the_difference_between_a_native_Debian_package_and_a_non-native_package.3F<https://nam05.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwiki.debian.org%2FDebianMentorsFaq%23What_is_the_difference_between_a_native_Debian_package_and_a_non-native_package.3F&data=02%7C01%7CArnold.Czeman%40oneidentity.com%7C4c74e483b3c844323a2b08d8531c0d2b%7C91c369b51c9e439c989c1867ec606603%7C0%7C0%7C637350727237917170&sdata=mlK4GHfo2WHHTORqX52NBT23lHUkhNVArQLqZ0rR7Aw%3D&reserved=0>
I have also checked the gbp tool source code, and it seems to be a compatible 
one with
this description.

Could you please make a correct version string if you want this will be a 
native package, otherwise
please generate a *.diff.gz or a *.debian.tar.* archive, just like an older 
version of this
package!

It's back to non-native in focal and groovy. It might make sense to fix it to 
be non-native in the next SRU, but it doesn't seem worth performing a SRU just 
for this to me.

Cheers,
mwh

If I can help anything, please let me know!

Thank you in advance,
Arnold Czeman
