Bug#481681: more info



Looks like the problem with .tdeb could have a workaround, indeed it
looks like the way that udebs are created, by specifying the full
package name to dpkg-deb.

em_installtdeb now has that support and .tdeb files can be created by
dpkg.


reprepro needs a patch to accept .tdeb and allow .tdeb in
the repository files:
 $ reprepro --ignore=extension -b /path/ includedeb \
 unstable ../qof-locale-sv_0.7.5-1em1_arm.tdeb
 $ ls /opt/reprepro/locale/pool/main/q/qof/
 qof-locale-sv_0.7.5-1em1_arm.deb

 Filename: pool/main/q/qof/qof-locale-sv_0.7.5-1em1_arm.deb
 Description: sv translation for qof (tdeb)

reprepro also needs a way to handle a .tdeb .changes file.
 reprepro -b /opt/reprepro/locale/ include
unstable ../qof_0.7.5-1em1_arm.changes
'qof-locale-id_0.7.5-1em1_arm.tdeb' is not .deb or .udeb! There have
been errors!

The problems with dpkg-source also appear to be fixed by having a
proper .tdeb available.

Leaving this bug open for now - may reassign to reprepro with details
of how to extend udeb support to tdebs, once Lenny is released.
