Well, you'd normally run git-buildpackage, but what you did is a valid way to build as well, even though it may leave dirt in your local Git repository (which you may don't care about anyway). > I then installed the package which has now removed the problem. Cool. I'll wait for Ondrej and Thijs agreement about uploading, since I was not the origin maintainer (just out of respect for their past work), then I'll upload the fixed package. > Bear in mind that my script is not too advanced at the moment: > it merely does a username and sha1 lookup and then a list of > a single table, without using prepared statements or anything, > so I cannot call this a complete coverage test, but it has > removed the problem I originally reported. Well, it's still better than me doing zero functional testing of the package, and your tests are helping and saving my time, so thanks for doing it. Please note that building the package in Squeeze will *fail*, as the version of PEAR isn't high enough to handle the package.xml correctly. So a version depends will be needed, which I will add before uploading. Cheers, Thomas -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
