Package: dput-ng Version: 1.44.1 Severity: serious File: /usr/bin/dput Justification: Silent data loss: you run dput and it seems to work, but nothing happened
Steps: Run dput-ng with method = local incoming = a mode 555 directory Expected results: Error message(s) on stderr and a nonzero exit status. Actual results: Reports of successful upload, a zero exit status, but nothing has actually been copied. I have verifed with strace that - dput-ng has swallowed the stderr from install(8) - install(8) exited nonzero - dput-ng ignored this Transcript below. I have a git branch in which I try to fix this. I will make an MR on Salsa.
