Package: dpkg-dev Version: 1.15.7.2 Severity: normal Tags: squeeze sid Hi,
I was just building source packages on a Debian Squeeze and since I was uploading these packages to an Ubuntu PPA for different Ubuntu distributions, I wanted to exclude the upload of the .orig.tar.gz archive for all packages except for the first upload. I therefore called debuild with the options "-S -sd" to exclude the .orig.tar.gz. However, the newly created packages were rejected by the PPA because the .dsc file still refers to the .orig.tar.gz file. In the changes file, the .orig.tar.gz is not listed, however. Thus, when I want to be able to upload the package, I will have to remove the appropriate line from the .dsc file. If I'm not missing something, then this might be a bug in dpkg-genchanges.
