I presume you could ship all the "normal" files in one tarball, the .arch-ids and {arch} directories in another, and the debian/ directory in a third. That would give the NMUer a full working tree to run $TLA diff in. Only shipping a grab file would burden the end user with a need for http access and no guarantee that the source will be available. > The problem here is that the repository in question _has_ to be > registered by the user running this; so all the users would have to > register the arch repository in question before unpacking the source > tarball in order to tell baz/tla how to get access to the repo.

It shouldn't be too difficult to add an --autoregister switch to tla grab, though I don't know how safe it'd be. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
