** Changed in: dpkg (Ubuntu Precise)
Status: New => In Progress
** Description changed:
+ SRU justification:
+
+ [Impact] Launchpad can't import some source packages from Debian unstable.
The fix is to cherry-pick changes from unstable that support unpacking (but,
for minimality, not creating) such source packages.
+ [Test Case] For the format 3.0 case, download the limnoria source package
from Debian unstable and unpack it with "dpkg-source -x". For the format 1.0
case, there are no examples as yet in unstable, but it's easy to construct one:
download a 1.0 package (e.g. makepasswd), sign its .orig.tar.gz with "gpg
--armor --clearsign", rebuild the source package using unstable's toolchain,
and then try to unpack it with "dpkg-source -x" in precise/trusty.
+ [Regression Potential] Confined to "dpkg-source -x", so it should be
sufficient to check that unpacking packages without .orig.*.asc still works.
+
+ Original report follows:
+
https://launchpad.net/debian/+source/vlc/ is missing Debian branches for
sid and stretch.
This then also breaks auto-sync of some of Debian's packages to Ubuntu's
development branch.
This is apparently what broke the auto-import:
dpkg-source: error: unrecognized file for a v2.0 source package:
vlc_2.2.3.orig.tar.xz.asc
See this discussion about including .asc files in Debian source packages
which requires dpkg to be updated:
