Package: dupload Version: 2.6.4 Severity: normal Tags: patch Hello,
this bug is related to the fix of #384703. I'm marking it as normal instead of wishlist because it broke my workflow without any good reason and there is no good workaround without editing dupload code. I use dupload to upload to my local archive with the aim to verify changes before real upload. What's more, packaging history is kept in subversion (team maintenance) where UNRELEASED is regarded as the right distro to use until packaging is complete. This mandatory UNRELEASED check breaks my workflow as I no longer can use dupload to upload not yet ready packages for local testing. Therefore, please make this UNRELEASED check disabable. I have no problem with it being enabled by default. Suggested very simple patch is attached. It adds 'allow_unreleased' option.
