That's probably possible in theory but this is not my problem. I could also easily have copyied the tarball to ../tarballs to work around this. However, *creating* a tarball out of no information would be definitely the wrong way to go since there is such a tarball with a certain MD5sum in the Debian archive and thus chances for creating a second one with a different MD5sum would be quite high and thus this procedure definitely not acceptable in the given situation. > This is a beginning of a documented workflow following DEP-14: > http://blog.mycre.ws/articles/git-packaging-workflow-for-py-lmdb/ I know that there is DEP-14 but Charles has introduced "something else" in a certain set of packages and I keep on trying to warm up with this but failed so far.
