Not 'that' difficult :) I've just uploaded new mplayer release to extras from
my old RedHat clone without any problem.
Here is the log. I hope it helps:
$ cat /etc/redhat-release
Red Hat Linux release 9 (Shrike)
$ ls
mplayer_1.0pre8-maemo.7_armel.changes mplayer_1.0pre8-maemo.7.diff.gz
mplayer_1.0pre8-maemo.7_armel.deb mplayer_1.0pre8-maemo.7.dsc
$/scratchbox/devkits/debian/bin/debsign -e"[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
mplayer_1.0pre8-maemo.7_armel.changes
signfile mplayer_1.0pre8-maemo.7.dsc [EMAIL PROTECTED]
<skipped pathphrase's requests>
Successfully signed dsc and changes files
$ scp * [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/www/extras/incoming/
That's it. After 2 minutes all mplayer files were accessible by apt from extras
repo.
BTW, I didn't manage to sign packages in scratchbox because of gnupg problem:
signfile mplayer_1.0pre8-maemo.7.dsc Ed Bartosh <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
gpg: WARNING: "--no-show-policy-url" is a deprecated option
gpg: please use "--list-options no-show-policy-urls" instead
gpg: WARNING: "--no-show-policy-url" is a deprecated option

gpg: [stdin]: clearsign failed: unknown cipher algorithm
