Public bug reported: Hello,
In certain debs we get the error from reprepro "No section found" when trying to upload it using dput. We can reproduce it using the package from Microsoft Teams: wget https://packages.microsoft.com/repos/ms-teams/pool/main/t/teams/teams_1.4.00.4855_amd64.deb changestool --create $DEB.changes adddeb teams_1.4.00.4855_amd64.deb changestool teams_1.4.00.4855_amd64.deb.changes setdistribution bionic-personal changestool teams_1.4.00.4855_amd64.deb.changes verify The output of last command will be: "ERROR: No section specified in './teams_1.4.00.4855_amd64.deb'!" dput will still work, but then repreprod will complain of a "No section found". Further inspection reveals the problem is in the following line of the generated changes file: Files: fc0545d54a33154b829573ade4e5b084 21249689 - optional teams_1.4.00.4855_amd64.deb The workaround is to replace the "-" for "default". The following oneliner does it: sed -i 's/\-\ optional/default\ optional/' teams_1.4.00.4855_amd64.deb In any case I believe that this shouldn't be the reason for changestool or reprepro to fail.
