Hi, there is a lintian warning when you use Vcs fields as described in: http://debian-science.alioth.debian.org/debian-science-policy.html
But the browser and git fields are working with this setting. When I follow the lintian recommendation "Note that you can often just exchange e.g. git:// with https:// for repositories." from this page https://lintian.debian.org/tags/vcs-field-uses-insecure-uri.html the way several packages have already done, ie: Vcs-Browser: https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-science/packages/calculix-ccx.git Vcs-Git: https://anonscm.debian.org/debian-science/packages/calculix-ccx.git Vcs-Browser is working, however I think the Vcs-Git is not working: cts@bunny:~/t>git clone https://anonscm.debian.org/debian-science/packages/calculix-ccx.git Cloning into 'calculix-ccx'... fatal: repository 'https://anonscm.debian.org/debian-science/packages/calculix-ccx.git/' not found Or is it working, only I fail to understand it? I have already changed this for another package, following an octave-* package as example. This works (somehow) in the webbrowser, but not for git checkout https://alioth.debian.org/anonscm/git/collab-maint/madbomber.git/ What is the recommended way (for debian-science packages) to handle Vcs-Git entries in a secure way? thanks, Christian
