Package: devscripts
Version: 2.10.69
Severity: minor
File: /usr/bin/uscan

Hi!

In uscan's manpage we have:

       --repack
              After having downloaded an lzma tar, xz tar, bzip tar or zip ar‐
              chive, repack it to a gzip tar archive, which is still currently
              required as a member of a Debian source package. Does nothing if
              the downloaded archive is not an lzma tar archive,  xz  tar  ar‐
              chive,  bzip tar archive or a zip archive (i.e. it doesn't match
              a .tlz, .tar.lzma, .txz, .tar.xz .tbz, .tbz2, .tar.bz2  or  .zip
              extension).  The  unzip  package  must  be installed in order to
              repack .zip archives, the lzma  package  must  be  installed  to
              repack  lzma  tar  archives,  and  the  xz-utils package must be
              installed to repack xz tar archives.

First it says that after downloading a zip archive, it repacks to a gzip
tar archive. Then It says that it does nothing if the downloaded archive
is a zip one (.zip extension). Then again, it says to repack a .zip
archive, it's necessary to have unzip installed.

Maybe some of these "zip" are actually "gzip"?

Thank you!

Best regards,
Nelson

OK, stupid me :-(
I've read it a lot of times and didn't see "Does nothing if the
downloaded archive is *NOT* an lzma tar archive,  xz  tar  archive,
bzip tar archive or a zip archive (i.e. it doesn't match a .tlz,
.tar.lzma, .txz, .tar.xz .tbz, .tbz2, .tar.bz2 or .zip extension)".
Really sorry for that.

Best regards,
Nelson
