Package: devscripts Version: 2.10.19 Severity: wishlist File: /usr/bin/uscan
As other bug reports suggest (433408) there is an issue with sf.net redirector. Workaround mentioned in man helps to make uscan --report to work but doesn't help to keep workflow automated since it is impossible to download those damn tarballs from upload.sourceforge.net. Imho the best solution would be to work out some agreement with sf.net guys so we don't need to twist our heads on how to keep uscan working. I have posted a question on sf's forum http://sourceforge.net/community/forum/topic.php?id=1827&page&replies=1 Back to this bugreport: In my case I am relying on sf.net only as a measure to tell what is the most recent release. My watch line is opts=pasv ftp://upload.sourceforge.net/pub/sourceforge/m/md/mdp-toolkit/ \ MDP-([\d\.]+)\.tar\.gz debian dh_wraporig and dh_wraporig (tool not yet in any Debian package but used in quite a few and announced on the mailing list) fetches sources from trunk of SVN repository (and due to split nature from another trunk as well). Full log of actions is within README.Debian-source http://git.onerussian.com/?p=mdp;a=blob_plain;f=debian/README.Debian-source;hb=HEAD uscan has --report and --no-download which do the same thing -- report. Imho --no-download should perform all the actions (ie call specified command with not actually download file) but actually download the file. And there should be a way to specify that within debian/watch I know that it sounds somewhat particular for my use case, but objectively --report and --no-download have different meaning if read in plain English ;-), thus should do what they say ;-) Cheers -- Package-specific info: --- /etc/devscripts.conf --- --- ~/.devscripts --- DEBSIGN_KEYID=75C024C8 DEBUILD_ROOTCMD=fakeroot DEBUILD_DPKG_BUILDPACKAGE_OPTS="-i -ICVS -I.svn" DEBUILD_LINTIAN=yes DEBUILD_LINDA=yes -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (900, 'testing'), (300, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-3-686 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages devscripts depends on: ii debianutils 2.28.3 Miscellaneous utilities specific t ii dpkg-dev 1.14.16.6 package building tools for Debian ii libc6 2.7-8 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii perl 5.8.8-12 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction ii sed 4.1.5-5 The GNU sed stream editor Versions of packages devscripts recommends: ii fakeroot 1.9.3 Gives a fake root environment -- no debconf information -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
