The program dget from the devscripts package fetches all three files if you give it the .dsc URL as parameter and by default automatically runs "dpkg-source -x" if the signature is ok.

I've got such a repo (it's on http://noone.org/apt/), but I didn't put it in there on purpose. The version number is already the one which will likely be used in the next Debian upload (independent of who will upload the package), but the package itself is not yet that package: The distribution is set to UNRELEASED on purpose, too. People who install this may need to have a look at it when the official package arrives via APT. Usually that works fine if one package is not from an APT archive but installed via dpkg -i only. > I recently did this; the three main options I considered were > reprepro, DAK, and mini- buildd, and I ended up using reprerpo As do I and most others, too. Even apt.postgresql.org runs reprepro IIRC. :-) > > Cc'ing the original reporter in case the package helps him for his v3 > > use case. > > Thanks much. > Builds clean in cowbuilder.

See: > http://www.debian.org/doc/packaging-manuals/copyright-format/1.0/ Yeah, in comparison to DEP-3 patches, I don't yet know DEP-5 by mind and lintian doesn't yet complain about non-DEP-5 copyright files, so the urge to move to DEP-5 is low, at least if I don't have to change much in in there.
