[Bug 247172] Re: patch dget to suggest dgetlp
This bug was fixed in the package devscripts - 2.10.39ubuntu1~hardy1
---
devscripts (2.10.39ubuntu1~hardy1) hardy-backports; urgency=low
* Automated backport upload; no source changes.
devscripts (2.10.39ubuntu1) jaunty; urgency=low
* Merge from debian unstable; remaining Ubuntu changes:
- rmadison: Change default URL parameter to ubuntu.
- scripts/debchange.pl:
+ Adjust --security template for Ubuntu.
+ Add -U/--upstream flag that forces original just increment
the end behaviour; Ubuntu is upstream for some pieces of software.
+ Add --distributor= to override lsb_release output.
+ Add jaunty as valid release name.
+ Default to jaunty as distribution.
+ Add ubuntu1 to version string for new versions, with tweaks for
special cases.
- Add test/debchange.pl, test/Makefile: debchange test suite; call it
during build in debian/rules. Also add lsb-release build dependency for
this, so that debchange uses Ubuntu mode.
- scripts/debuild.pl: Enforce Ubuntu merge policy.
- scripts/debsign.{sh,1}: implement DEBSIGN_ALWAYS_RESIGN variable to skip
the Would you like to use the current signature? question. (Debian
#447955)
- scripts/uupdate.{sh,1}: Use -0ubuntu1 default revision on Ubuntu.
(LP #236526)
- scripts/dscverify.pl: Add Ubuntu keyrings. (LP #228296)
- Drop universe packages from Recommends to Suggests:
+ libcrypt-ssleay-perl: only needed for a corner case (uscan on SSL
download sites), wasn't installed by default in previous releases
either, and seems quite dead upstream
+ libsoap-lite-perl: only needed for one less common command (select)
for bts, which isn't useful for Ubuntu itself, and pulls in a lot of
other universe Perl libraries
+ debian-{keyring,maintainers}: not useful enough in Ubuntu
+ equivs: too much of a hack to install by default
* Reintroduce desktop2menu. libfile-desktopentry-perl is in main now anyway,
and reverting the dropping makes the delta to Debian much smaller. It
doesn't actually hurt to ship it, after all.
devscripts (2.10.39) unstable; urgency=low
[ Adam D. Barratt ]
* bts:
+ Allow an explicit HELO to be specified when connecting via SMTP.
+ If a HELO is not specified then attempt to use the content of
/etc/mailname instread.
+ Expand on the definition of claim in the manpage. (Closes: #501142)
+ Trim anything that doesn't look like an e-mail address from $DEBEMAIL or
$EMAIL before using it for un/claim or un/subscribe. (Closes: #501162)
+ Update the documentation for bts select to make it clearer that
specifying a key multiple times gives or semantics. (Closes: #499434)
* checkbashisms:
+ Recognise brace expansions containing a leading or trailing empty value
({,foo}, etc). Thanks Jonny Lamb. (Closes: #499971)
+ Recognise the use of source with quoted arguments. (Closes: #501171)
* debdiff: Ensure exit status is always explicitly set (and set
correctly). (Closes: #500256)
* debian/rules: Create a link from the French pts-subscribe manpage
as pts-unsubscribe, so long as the former exists (i.e. has been
sufficiently translated).
* licensecheck: Add support for fortran and Scilab files and for detecting
the CeCILL and SGI Free B licenses. Thanks Sylvestre Ledru
(Closes: #501447)
* uscan: Allow --download-version to be more useful in situations where a
current upstream version higher than that to be downloaded has been
specified. Thanks James Westby. (Closes: #501932)
[ James Vega ]
* pts-subscribe: When called as pts-unsubscribe, send an unsubscribe request
to the PTS. (Closes: #500585)
devscripts (2.10.38) unstable; urgency=low
[ Adam D. Barratt ]
* When upgrading from devscripts 2.10.36, remove the incorrectly
created /etc/devscripts.con if it is present and add the affected
section to /etc/devscripts.conf instead.
* tagpending: Re-add an accidentally removed blank line at the end
of the generated comments.
[ Patrick Schoenfeld ]
* mk-build-deps:
+ Implement --install switch which installs a generated package and its
depends afterwards.
+ Add an option --tool to specify which tool to use when installing the
packages (default: apt-get)
+ Add an option --remove to specify that package files should be deleted
after installing it.
+ Enable configuration file parsing
+ Add a configuration option MKBUILDDEPS_TOOL to specify which tool shall
be used if the installation of the build-depends after creation is
requested.
+ Add a configuration option MKBUILDDEPS_REMOVE_AFTER_INSTALL to configure
that package files shall always be removed after installing the
created packages and its build-depends.

[Bug 247172] Re: patch dget to suggest dgetlp
Scott: I disagree. Surely it's useful if you happen to have a URL to a .dsc on launchpadlibrarian.net, regardless of whether it's in a PPA. If the Recommends is a problem, it would be easy to simply drop this to a Suggests. I'm disappointed that you just reverted this without prior discussion; let's talk about this before taking further action. -- patch dget to suggest dgetlp https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/247172 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 247172] Re: patch dget to suggest dgetlp
Colin: The recommends is a problem as ubuntu-dev-tools is in Universe. Also it ends up pulling in ~70 more packages. Before reverting this I did look for you on IRC and did not find you. We had a discussion with the author of the patch (on #ubuntu-motu) and he agreed with reverting it. We also talked with cprov and he agreed to extending the dget friendly urls provided for Ubuntu packages to PPA. If you'd been around I certainly would have discussed it with you, but I felt that because of the large number of additional packages this was going to pull into a lot of people's systems and that the effect of the problem was substantially narrower than reported in the bug reversion was appropriate. I'm certain seeing it was reverted seemed abrupt. My apologies for that. Karl: I think that the best solution for this for Launchpad to fix it. More discussion below. If this is important enough to fix (I don't think it is, my suggestion is just wait for Launchpad to resolve the problem with PPA as they have done with distro package) I don't think falling back to dgetlp is the right answer. Looking at dgetlp, it appears that the operative bits that are unique to it are captured in a few lines of shell. My suggestion would be to integrate the fallback to dgetlp directly into dget and make it transparent to the user. If we do that, we can just drop dgetlp from ubuntu-dev-tools. -- patch dget to suggest dgetlp https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/247172 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 247172] Re: patch dget to suggest dgetlp
Hmm, OK. I would have dropped it to a Suggests but I guess either works. Did you get any information on whether Launchpad will get this fixed by the time Ubuntu 7.10 releases? If not, I think we'd be justified in providing folks with that little bit of extra advice for the time being. I agree that integrating dgetlp into dget is ultimately a better solution (I did look at just execing it, but it doesn't support the same command-line options). Nathan, perhaps you could look at that so that we have it as a fallback? -- patch dget to suggest dgetlp https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/247172 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs

You don't need to include the trivial translation changes, but it's no trouble to handle a debdiff that includes them.

I'm reverting this fix. Because recommends get installed by default, adding ubuntu-dev-tools to a recommends pulls in a lot of packages and all would have to be in Main.

[Bug 247172] Re: patch dget to suggest dgetlp
I modified scripts/dget.pl to die if a file from launchpadlibrarian.net was requested. When it dies, it displays this message in the terminal: Use dgetlp provided by ubuntu-dev-tools for files hosted at launchpadlibrarian.net. Since we are telling them to use dgetlp, I also added ubuntu-dev-tools as a recommended package. apt now installs recommended packages automatically, so this will cause ubuntu-dev-tools to be installed along with devscripts. As a result, they won't have any issues running dgetlp. The debdiff includes changes to debscripts.pot fr.po. From the looks of it, this is because I added lines to dget.pl. As a result, the line numbers for the translations had to be modified. If these changes are not needed in the debdiff, let me know. I would be glad to prepare a new debdiff without them. devscripts (2.10.26ubuntu8) intrepid; urgency=low * scripts/dget.pl - Die if trying to download from launchpadlibrarian.net and tell user to use dgetlp from ubuntu-dev-tools.
