Public bug reported: If a package exists in ${DEVELOPMENT_RELEASE}-proposed and ${DEVELOPMENT_RELEASE}, syncpackage and requestsync give different results. Syncpackage checks against -proposed be default, while requestsync checks against proposed only if a package doesn't exist in -release. At the time I did these requests, 1.1.2-1 was in raring- proposed:
$ requestsync -d experimental shiboken W: Target release missing - assuming raring Consider using syncpackage(1) for syncs that do not require feature freeze exceptions. Currently the bug report looks like: Summary (one line): Sync shiboken 1.1.2-2 (universe) from Debian experimental (main) Description: Please sync shiboken 1.1.2-2 (universe) from Debian experimental (main) Changelog entries since current raring version 1.1.1-1: shiboken (1.1.2-2) experimental; urgency=low * Add python{,3}-numpy-dbg to Build-Depends to have all tests pass. * Make dbg tests build-critical. -- Didier Raboud <o...@debian.org> Mon, 29 Oct 2012 10:06:19 +0100 shiboken (1.1.2-1) experimental; urgency=low * New 1.1.2 "Alaursa" release. - Add 6 1.1.2-specific symbols; * Update B-Ds: - add python{,3}-numpy to succeed all tests. -- Didier Raboud <o...@debian.org> Tue, 04 Sep 2012 08:47:15 +0200 Edit [y|N]? ^C User abort. $ syncpackage -d experimental shiboken syncpackage: Source shiboken -> raring/Proposed: current version 1.1.2-1, new version 1.1.2-2 syncpackage: New changes: shiboken (1.1.2-2) experimental; urgency=low * Add python{,3}-numpy-dbg to Build-Depends to have all tests pass. * Make dbg tests build-critical. -- Didier Raboud <o...@debian.org> Mon, 29 Oct 2012 10:06:19 +0100 Sync this package [y|N]? y syncpackage: Request succeeded; you should get an e-mail once it is processed.
