Debian doesn't yet have sourceful no-change rebuilds, so you have to manually do a sourceful no-change upload (or a regular upload). Ubuntu does tho. dch supports the --rebuild option for this, but only on Ubuntu systems. > This would clearly be optimal. I'm just asking about an additional / > alternative mechanism. Yeah, we need sourceful no-change rebuilds in addition to NEW discarding. The first step would be updating dch to support this, after that the infrastructure can be updated, although I guess the infra could reimplement what `dch --rebuild` does instead. This still needs a volunteer to implement it, so far we have none to do that. -- bye, pabs https://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise
