Package: devscripts Version: 2.15.3 Severity: wishlist Dear Maintainer,
uscan --force-repack would be helpful for testing Files-Excluded and repacksuffix. The way to test an repacksuffix=ds1 containing debian/watch for example-1.0/ is: rm example*tar.gz uscan --force-download example-1.0 This gives us example-1.0.tar.gz and example_1.0+ds1.orig.tar.gz rm example_1.0+ds1.orig.tar.gz uscan --force-download example-1.0 What happens now that example_1.0+ds1.orig.tar.gz is missing? We have to delete example-1.0.tar.gz or there's no easy way to force the repack. This is not good if the example-1.0.tar.gz is large or we want to test this function offline. -- Package-specific info: --- /etc/devscripts.conf --- --- ~/.devscripts --- Not present -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.2 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.1.0-0.bpo.2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages devscripts depends on: ii dpkg-dev 1.17.25 ii libc6 2.19-18+deb8u1 ii perl 5.20.2-3+deb8u1 ii python3 3.4.2-2 pn python3:any <none> Versions of packages devscripts recommends: ii at 3.1.16-1 ii dctrl-tools 2.23 ii debian-keyring 2015.04.10 ii dput 0.9.6.4 ii equivs 2.0.9 ii fakeroot 1.20.2-1 ii file 1:5.22+15-2 ii gnupg 1.4.18-7 ii libdistro-info-perl 0.14 ii libencode-locale-perl 1.03-1 ii libjson-perl 2.61-1 ii liblwp-protocol-https-perl 6.06-2 ii libparse-debcontrol-perl 2.005-4 ii libsoap-lite-perl 1.11-1 ii liburi-perl 1.64-1 ii libwww-perl 6.08-1 ii lintian 2.5.30+deb8u4 ii man-db 2.7.0.2-5 ii patch 2.7.5-1 ii patchutils 0.3.3-1 ii python3-debian 0.1.27 ii python3-magic 1:5.22+15-2 ii sensible-utils 0.0.9 ii strace 4.9-2 ii unzip 6.0-16 ii wdiff 1.2.2-1 ii wget 1.16-1 ii xz-utils 5.1.1alpha+20120614-2+b3 Versions of packages devscripts suggests: ii bsd-mailx [mailx] 8.1.2-0.20141216cvs-2 ii build-essential 11.7 pn cvs-buildpackage <none> pn debbindiff <none> pn devscripts-el <none> pn gnuplot <none> ii gpgv 1.4.18-7 ii libauthen-sasl-perl 2.1600-1 ii libfile-desktopentry-perl 0.07-1 ii libnet-smtp-ssl-perl 1.01-3 pn libterm-size-perl <none> ii libtimedate-perl 2.3000-2 pn libyaml-syck-perl <none> ii mutt 1.5.23-3 ii openssh-client [ssh-client] 1:6.7p1-5 pn svn-buildpackage <none> ii w3m 0.5.3-19 -- no debconf information
