One example could be catalog integrations. Maintainers upload to the unstable catalog, but when packages migrate from unstable to testing, this is usually done by someone else. For the kiel catalog, mgar-er and uploader are almost always two different people. > >> >> The variable in the pkginfo file is generated at packaging time. > >> >> > >> >> The attributes are valuated at upload time. > >> > > >> > We can no longer modify the package contents at upload time, and I'm > >> > guessing we want everything to be inside the package. > >> > >> At upload time, the database's attributes are valuated from what's in the > >> package, isn't it? > > > > Yes.

This can get a little ambiguous, since we have a number of user namespaces: - buildfarm - mantis - sourceforge Usually buildfarm and mantis are in sync, but user names on sourceforge are very different, e.g. my sourceforge user name is wahwah. Full names make it clearer. But if we make it explicit that we mean e.g. buildfarm names, bare usernames should be sufficient. Maciej
