Package: cdd-dev
Version: 0.5.0
Severity: wishlist
Hi,
Currently packages that use cdd-dev will not build when they are
targeted at an Ubuntu release in debian/changelog as there are
no sources.list files shipped for those versions.
I don't want to add these so that we can fork packages such
as debian-edu, but those packages are used by some people
on Ubuntu, and the current situation means that we can't
upload specific targeted fixes to Ubuntu when we need to.
The reason that I am requesting now is because we have just had this.
Currently we have older versions of cdd and debian-edu in the archives
that Debian. We want to fix a bug that you have already fixed in
Debian, but as we are releasing this month we just want to cherry-pick
the fix. The current situation means that we have to add the
sources.list files as well. It would be great if you had them already
so that we could reduce the diff to Debian in cases like this.
I've attached a patch with a suggested patch. It includes files for
the current development release, and the one that will be development
next month.
Thanks,
James

It ist your job to provide sources.list files to places different
from *.debian.org. Look at the debian-edu source.
The current situation means that we have to add the
sources.list files as well.
This is intendet and no constraint at all as debian-edu packages
prove.

I agree that reducing the diff to Debian is a reasonable target,
but IMHO the actual CDD has to decide about including extra sources
or not and not the general CDD tool. So if you want these sources.list
files be used in debian-edu packges please file the bug against this
package. Currently I have no opinion about this but I'm not so strongly
connected to Debian-Edu that I could decide this on my own.
I've attached a patch with a suggested patch. It includes files for
the current development release, and the one that will be development
next month.
I think the same patch would apply for debian-edu. Feel free to reopen
and reassign the bug if you think this should be implemented.
Kind regards
Andreas.
