Dear fellow package maintainers, I need you help. I'm currently trying to NMU gnome-find so that this package is no more a Debian native package, which is pointless. A kind of QA work on a package with low activity (and a probably MIA maintainer).
So, I grabbed it 1.0.2-1 current version and recompiled it as a non native package, using a gnome-find_1.0.2.orig.tar.gz file I got from the upstream repository. This built fine and I now have the following in my build directory: drwxr-xr-x 8 bubulle bubulle 1024 2005-03-08 11:26 gnome-find-1.0.2 -rw-r--r-- 1 bubulle bubulle 3400 2005-03-08 11:25 gnome-find_1.0.2-1.1.diff.gz -rw-rw-r-- 1 bubulle bubulle 659 2005-03-08 12:08 gnome-find_1.0.2-1.1.dsc -rw-r--r-- 1 bubulle bubulle 39627 2005-03-08 11:26 gnome-find_1.0.2-1.1_i386.build -rw-rw-r-- 1 bubulle bubulle 1214 2005-03-08 12:08 gnome-find_1.0.2-1.1_i386.changes -rw-r--r-- 1 bubulle bubulle 161412 2005-03-08 11:26 gnome-find_1.0.2-1.1_i386.deb -rw-r--r-- 1 bubulle bubulle 451517 2005-02-20 11:22 gnome-find_1.0.2.orig.tar.gz The .dsc file contains: .../...

So, there's obviously something I misunderstand or something I'm doing the Wrong Way. Could someone give me a hint? I somewhat suspect that I should add the mention of the .orig.tar.gz file in the .changes file. Should I add it manually before signing this file? Soprry for my ignorance : it looks like it still have tons of things to learn..:-) ----- Forwarded message from Debian Installer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> ----- From: Debian Installer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Christian Perrier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Yooseong Yang <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: gnome-find_1.0.2-1.1_i386.changes REJECTED Date: Tue, 08 Mar 2005 06:47:15 -0500 Rejected: gnome-find_1.0.2-1.1.dsc refers to gnome-find_1.0.2.orig.tar.gz, but I can't find it in the queue or in the pool. === If you don't understand why your files were rejected, or if the override file requires editing, reply to this email. ----- End forwarded message ----- -- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
