Package: ubuntu-dev-tools Version: 0.157 Severity: normal File: /usr/bin/backportpackage
Hi, When using backportpackage to backport and upload a Debian package to Ubuntu, the upload is rejected with such an e-mail: Rejected: Unable to identify file dasher_5.0.0~beta~repack-2~ubuntu14.04.1_source.buildinfo (x11) in changes. Further error processing not possible because of a critical previous error. A workaround is to backport to some directory (-w option), edit the .changes file to remove all lines referring to the .buildinfo file, re-sign the .changes file and upload manually with dput. Either the Ubuntu infrastructure has to be updated to ignore (or use) the buildinfo files, or backportpackage has to be fixed to do the workaround above automatically.
