Hello, oops, indeed I forgot to push the tag, sorry. That's fixed now. Updating the package was untrivial, as there is not tarball upstream. So I wrote a script to build the tarball from the svn first. Then, I imported that tarball into the git using git-import-orig /tmp/libjsyntaxpane-java-0.9.6~r156.tar.gz When prompted, I checked the version number and just pressed enter. Then, I updated the package itself. I only had to update the changelog, using: dch -i "new upstream release" Then I built the package with git-buildpackage. As it did not report any error, I installed the built package, and as it was ok to me, I did dch -r to update the timestamp and set the distribution to "unstable" in the changelog. Then I asked you guys to test the package. When I'll be happy, I'll rebuild it again using git-buildpackage --git-tag upload the package with dput, and push everything in the git (if I don't forget parts this time ;) I wrote this all from memory so something is maybe missing, but I hope you get the big picture. That's actually very easy :) Bye, Mt. -- Source is provided to this software because we believe users have the right to know exactly what a program is going to do before they run it. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
