It was a bit of a frustrating experience TBH. sane-git is running now and is up-to-date. sane-release is a bit different. I keep getting rejections from the PPA servers because Ubuntu already has a 1.1.1 release in jammy-updates and when I try to upload a 1.1.1 to our sane-release PPA, the server complains that they already have a 1.1.1 in their primary repo but it differs from the orig tar that I'm trying to upload, a bit of a no-no for reasons that I can understand. Our PPA process edits the tar file to add an additional file so I cannot upload that as 1.1.1. I will do some research tonight to: a) figure out why we need to add a "gitdescribe" file with the release version in it. b) how to upload a 1.1.1 release with a modified orig file, perhaps modify the version to something like 1.1.1-1 or somesuch. I already talked off-list with Povilas about this weird process whereby we use git describe to determine the version. I know that it already causes problems for us with release artifacts on GitLab which won't build. We need a better process I feel, and one that will also work for the sane-git PPA. Cheers, Ralph
