As I said, there must be something dput has done better to gain such momentum. dupload was 20% more until April 2008. dupload initialy takes off but stalls and stay flat. dput was more than dupload in July 2008 and kept going. Debian Lenny was from February 2008. Ubuntu 8.04 LTS Hardy Heron 2008-04-24 As I review dput now: * more natural configuration file format * dcut * support for non-signed upload. * better support for different types of Debian like archives including Ubuntu. * product marketing to Ubuntu folks :-) (Just guessing) * More package update > > Any objection? > > I don't see a reason to document dput *instead of* dupload. Maybe it'd be > better to document dput *in addition to* dupload? This is tutorial document. We should avoid documenting all. My recent addition to the debhelper packaging tutorial section with recent capabilities made this document big enough. My thought is switch weight between dput and dupload. I am not goint to drop dupload completely. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [email protected]
