This repository contains only the `debian` directory because git-buildpackage
doesn't handle multiple upstream tarballs, see #561071 for details.
Upgrade to a new upstream
=========================
This package use multiple upstream tarballs support provided by source package
format "3.0 (quilt)".
To obtain new orig tarballs you have to specify package version inside
debian/changelog, update module version in the $(UPSTREAMS) Makefile variable
inside debian/rules and then invoke the get-orig-source target of debian/rules
as follows:
$ debian/rules get-orig-source
If all goes well, that should leave, inside the the current directory, a
tarball called
PACKAGE_YYYYMMDD.orig.tar.gz
where PACKAGE is the source package name and YYYYMMDD is the version date
in year/month/day format specified in debian/changelog;
and a series of packages called
PACKAGE_YYYYMMDD.orig-MODULENAME-MODULEVERSION.tar.gz
where MODULENAME and MODULEVERSION are specified in the $(UPSTREAMS)
Makefile variable inside debian/rules.
Adding a new utility
====================
As this is a utility collection package, it is natural to expect that
in the future new utilities will be added. To add one to the package
follow a few simple rules:
1) add the module name and version (usually the egg name) to the $(UPSTREAMS)
Makefile variable in debian/rules
2) add the per-utility watch file as debian/NAME.watch, where NAME is
the module name
3) add license and copyright information about the new module to
debian/copyright
4) run "debian/rules get-orig-source" to recreate the new tarball
5) if the new module has docs, have a look at debian/*.{install,dirs}
to ship it where appropriate
