.TH PTS-SUBSCRIBE 1 "Debian Utilities" "DEBIAN" \" -*- nroff -*-
.SH NAME
pts-subscribe \- time-limited subscription to the PTS
.SH SYNOPSIS
\fBpts-subscribe\fR [options] \fIpackage\fR
.SH DESCRIPTION
\fBpts-subscribe\fR sends a subscription request for \fIpackage\fR to
the Package Tracking System at pts@qa.debian.org, and cancels the
subscription 30 days later.
.PP
This utility is useful if a developer has made an NMU and wants to
track the package for a limited period of time.
.SH OPTIONS
.TP
\fB\-\-until \fItime\fR, \fB\-u\fR \fItime\fR
When \fBat\fR(1) should cancel the subscription.  \fItime\fR must be
specified using \fBat\fR's syntax.  Default is 'now + 30 days'.  This
option will probably require quoting!
.TP
.B \-\-forever
Don't cancel the subscription automatically.  This can also be
specified as \fB\-\-until forever\fR.
.TP
.BR \-\-help ", " \-h
Display a help message and exit successfully.
.TP
.B \-\-version
Display version and copyright information and exit successfully.
.SH "ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES"
.TP
.BR DEBEMAIL ", " EMAIL
If one of these is set (with preference give to DEBEMAIL), then this
will be used for the subscription address.  If neither is set, then
the email will be sent without a specified subscription address, and
the email's From: line will be used to determine the sender's
address.  This will be determined by \fBmail\fR(1).
.SH "CONFIGURATION VARIABLES"
The two configuration files \fI/etc/devscripts.conf\fR and
\fI~/.devscripts\fR are sourced in that order to set configuration
variables.  Command line options can be used to override configuration
file settings.  Environment variable settings are ignored for this
purpose.  The currently recognised variables are:
.TP
.B PTS_UNTIL
Setting this is equivalent to giving a \fB\-\-until\fR option.
