Package: lintian Version: 2.5.48 Severity: normal While preparing new upload of rlinetd I decided to make lintian happy and add gpg signature checking in debian/watch in the following way:
# control file for the uscan(1) tool version=4 opts="pgpmode=next" http://alioth.debian.org/frs/?group_id=30928 \ (?:.*)/@PACKAGE@@ANY_VERSION@@ARCHIVE_EXT@ debian opts="pgpmode=previous" http://alioth.debian.org/frs/?group_id=30928 \ (?:.*)/@PACKAGE@@ANY_VERSION@@SIGNATURE_EXT@ previous But lintian still complains that debian-watch-may-check-gpg-signature, even though uscan actually checks the signature: uscan info: Newest upstream tarball version selected for download (uversionmangled): 0.9.1 uscan info: Download filename (filenamemangled): rlinetd-0.9.1.tar.gz.sig uscan: Newest version of rlinetd on remote site is 0.9.1, specified download version is 0.9.1 uscan info: Downloading OpenPGP signature from http://alioth.debian.org/frs/download.php/file/4194/rlinetd-0.9.1.tar.gz.sig (pgpmode=previous) as rlinetd-0.9.1.tar.gz.sig uscan info: Requesting URL: http://alioth.debian.org/frs/download.php/file/4194/rlinetd-0.9.1.tar.gz.sig uscan info: Use rlinetd-0.9.1.tar.gz as upstream package (pgpmode=previous) uscan info: Verifying OpenPGP signature rlinetd-0.9.1.tar.gz.sig for rlinetd-0.9.1.tar.gz gpgv: Signature made nie, 16 paź 2016, 19:04:32 CEST gpgv: using RSA key 631DE7553BE8AFD4 gpgv: Good signature from "Robert Luberda <[email protected]>" Regards, robert -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (990, 'unstable'), (200, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Kernel: Linux 4.7.0-1-686-pae (SMP w/1 CPU core) Locale: LANG=pl_PL.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=pl_PL.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: sysvinit (via /sbin/init) Versions of packages lintian depends on: ii binutils 2.27-8 ii bzip2 1.0.6-8 ii diffstat 1.61-1 ii file 1:5.28-4 ii gettext 0.19.8.1-1 ii intltool-debian 0.35.0+20060710.4 ii libapt-pkg-perl 0.1.29+b6 ii libarchive-zip-perl 1.59-1 ii libclass-accessor-perl 0.34-1 ii libclone-perl 0.38-2+b1 ii libdpkg-perl 1.18.10 ii libemail-valid-perl 1.202-1 ii libfile-basedir-perl 0.07-1 ii libipc-run-perl 0.94-1 ii liblist-moreutils-perl 0.416-1+b1 ii libparse-debianchangelog-perl 1.2.0-11 ii libperl5.24 [libdigest-sha-perl] 5.24.1~rc3-3 ii libtext-levenshtein-perl 0.13-1 ii libtimedate-perl 2.3000-2 ii liburi-perl 1.71-1 ii libyaml-libyaml-perl 0.63-1+b1 ii man-db 2.7.5-1 ii patchutils 0.3.4-1 ii perl 5.24.1~rc3-3 ii t1utils 1.39-2 ii xz-utils 5.2.2-1.2 Versions of packages lintian recommends: ii dpkg 1.18.10 pn libperlio-gzip-perl <none> ii perl 5.24.1~rc3-3 ii perl-modules-5.24 [libautodie-perl] 5.24.1~rc3-3 Versions of packages lintian suggests: pn binutils-multiarch <none> ii dpkg-dev 1.18.10 ii libhtml-parser-perl 3.72-2+b1 ii libtext-template-perl 1.46-1 -- no debconf information
