Package: dpatch Version: 2.0.25 Severity: minor -----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1
The manpage reads for the --debianonly option of dpatch-edit-patch: [..] The optional argument is the path to the upstream tarball [..] - From my understanding, I expected, that I just need to give the path to the tarball, excluding the tarball name (I mean, from the changelog entry, dpatch-edit-patch should be able to determine the .orig.tar.gz name itself). So what is it: A misunderstanding at my side? Then the manpage should be slidely adjusted. Or is this option broken? PS: I would suggest the following: - - check if the path is a file or directory - - if it is a file, then consider it the upstream tarball - - if it is a directory, then expect the .orig.tar.gz inside this directory (create the .orig.tar.gz tarball name from debian/changelog) What is your opinion?
