Package: devscripts
Version: 2.25.15
Severity: normal
X-Debbugs-Cc: [email protected];[email protected]
When going through the documentation for the new watch file format, I
met several boolean fields such as `Repack` and `Decompress` (plus the
FTP options from #1109878, but I proposed to remove those).
In the documentation for `Repack` it says `When set to yes,...`. When I
reached `Decompress`, it did not say what value was accepted but I
assumed `yes`. Then further down, the man page shows the following example:
```
Version: 5
Source: http://example.com/release/@[email protected]
Version-Regex: files/@PACKAGE@@ANY_VERSION@@ARCHIVE_EXT@
Pgp-Sig-Url-Mangle=s%@ARCHIVE_EXT@$%.asc%
Decompress: 1
```
Which implies that `1` is used for `Decompress` and might work for other
boolean fields I see. I would recommend we explicitly and consistently
use `yes` for these cases through out.
Best regards,
Niels
