Not wanting to get into such a religious discussion, I do think I can correct two things here: saying it's not any better than CVS is untrue, because SVN is (apart from a few details) a feature superset of CVS. It's strictly better, it does what CVS does and it does more (better branching, global revision numbers, file renaming/copying, ...). It manages UNIX rights not in detail but you can set files executable, which I think is the major usecase for UNIX rights in packaging. I'm not sure what other rights you'd need when packaging something, as everything will be reset in the .diff anyway.

Help with wrong upload
Hello, Could some mentors help me here?! I uploaded tex4ht version 20070717-1 to ftp-master.debian.org. Unfortunately, a couple of typos slipped in which make this package un-installable. I have now prepared a fixed version 20070717-2 which has been checked really properly (this time!) and uploaded. I want to avoid over-loading the mirrors because of 20070717-1 being propagated. Searching through various documentation I couldn't figure out whether there is some way I can do this. Is it enough to upload 20070717-2? Thanks and regards.

Yes, it is. -1 has been propagated to the mirrors already at the most recent mirror pulse, but -2 will follow tonight. Only people whose mirror has been fully updated and have upgraded their system between now and tonight will have the -1 version. Nothing to do about that. Anyone who upgrades after tonight will have the -2 version, and the -1 version will be gone as soon as the next mirror pulse happens.

Re: Suggests vs. Recommends
Hello 'packagesearch' is a package which uses a plugin architecture. Each plugin provides a way to search for packages, e.g. doing a full text search, searching by filenames or orphaned packages. All plugins are shipped together with the main application in a single package. However, most of the plugins require some additional packages to work (e.g. apt-file or deborphan). If the packages are not available, the plugin will detect that, inform the user how he could install the package and disable itself. I would do this on a case by case basis: recommend some of the core plugins that do not need additional packages, so that the framework normally ships with some plugins that work, but even those can be removed without removing the framework; and suggesting the other plugins, so people know about them. That sounds like a reasonable policy for plugin packages to me. It's actually what a lot of totally plugin based software does. I will use that approach for packagesearch. I believe the use of virtual packages is not exactly the most popular thing to do. I remember being advised against it once. Also I don't want the overhead of splitting up the package just yet - there is not much gain coming from that. Thanks to all for the suggestions.

If it isn't clear in my last message, it's debhelper who generates that files during the build. No, I wrote qttube.post{inst,rm}, not qttube.post{inst,rm}.debhelper, and I meant it. You're missing these files in the .deb. Check with mc (simply hit Enter on the .deb and have a look at what is shipped there). The reason is most probably because you're not using dh_installdeb. Apart from that, your packaging looks quite broken to me (sorry for being blunt, don't take it bad---everyone has to learn one day or the other). The most broken thing is that your binary package is arch: any, whereas it should be arch: all since Python code runs on all platforms and doesn't need to be compiled specifically for each platform. Next, I'd say the way you call the main python module is wrong: ,[ /usr/bin/qttube ] | #! /bin/sh | | cd /usr/share/qttube/src | python ./qttube.py $* ` IMHO, /usr/bin/qttube should be something like that: , | #! /usr/bin/python | | # Maybe fiddle here with sys.path to have your private python modules | # available to import. | | import qttube_main_module | | qttube_main_module.run() ` I see you're calling dh_pysupport in binary-indep, but AFAICS, this currently does absolutely nothing to your .deb file. I think you're misusing dh_pysupport ATM. Also, your rules file contains way too much stuff from the dh_make template, such as the useless configure* targets. You should understand it fully and only let what is useful. I suggest to: - read documentation on dh_pysupport; - look at other packages in the archive that are using it; - and then kindly ask on debian-python for someone to check your packaging (I personally have not yet packaged anything in Python with the new Python Policy, so I couldn't help much here).
