uploading to stable and unstable at once
Hello dear developers,
to fix a critical bug on scsitools package (0.8-1), I'm willing to
upload a new revision of my package to stable but it was rejected by
dinstall merely because I targeted it only to stable but no newer
release is available in testing/unstable.
Although I'm working on a new release of scsitools for unstable to fix
more bugs, I'd rather want to upload a simple fix to address the
critical bug first. This is why I tried to upload to stable, with no
success.
So is there a chance to get it accepted if I target it both to stable
and unstable at once ? Is autobuilder so nice to build all
architectures under a stable chroot then ?
Or do I need to upload to unstable first (0.8-2 for instance) then try
again an upload targeted only to stable (named 0.8-1sarge for example) ?
Here is the message sent back to me by dinstall:
Mapping stable to proposed-updates.
Rejected: scsitools_0.8-1sarge_i386.deb: old version (0.8-1) in unstable <= new version (0.8-1sarge) targeted at proposed-updates.
