Package: dput Version: 0.9.2.25 Severity: wishlist When used with a trivial apt repository, instead of the main Debian archive, it would be useful to be able to use dput on one architecture (say i386) uploading all files in .changes, then use a dput option on a second machine (say powerpc) to only copy the architecture-specific files from the .changes file. This reduces the total bandwidth usage and time required to update one package with binaries from multiple architectures.
If such an option only supported uploading only the .deb files from .changes that would be an improvement. With large packages, uploading the entire .org.tar.gz every time is wasteful. In addition, overwriting the .dsc file each time is just plain wrong. -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.16-1-amd64-k8 Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Versions of packages dput depends on: ii debconf [debconf-2.0] 1.5.2 Debian configuration management sy ii gnupg 1.4.3-2 GNU privacy guard - a free PGP rep ii python 2.3.5-11 An interactive high-level object-o dput recommends no packages. -- debconf information excluded -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
