Public bug reported: reprepro can generate snapshots of distributions. But the restore of a snapshot does not work.
Steps to reproduce the problem in a clean directory: 1) mkdir conf/ 2) cat > conf/distributions << EOF Codename: testcode Description: testdesc Architectures: amd64 source Components: main Contents: .gz EOF 3) reprepro includedeb testcode hello-debhelper_2.7-2_amd64.deb #Include a deb 4) reprepro gensnapshot testcode mysnapshot # generates a snapshot under dists/testcode/snashot 5) reprepro includedeb testcode hello-debhelper_2.7-2dtag1_amd64.deb #Include another deb (this is just another rebuild with a different version number) 6) restore testcode mysnapshot hello-debhelper #should restore the package but nothing happens The last step should restore the package but that does not work. The fix for that can be found upstream: http://anonscm.debian.org/gitweb/?p=mirrorer/reprepro.git;a=commitdiff;h=38bdd869f617e8872e3194501bd79e3ecc94e425 ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.04 Package: reprepro 4.8.2-1build1 Uname: Linux 3.13-1-amd64 x86_64 ApportVersion: 2.0.1-0ubuntu17.6 Architecture: amd64 Date: Wed Apr 23 07:00:16 2014 MarkForUpload: True ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) SHELL=/bin/bash SourcePackage: reprepro UpgradeStatus: No upgrade log present (probably fresh install) ** Affects: reprepro (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug precise -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1311497 Title: Restore function of generated snapshots does not work To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/reprepro/+bug/1311497/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
