Re: MIA - Software for medical image alaysis



Hi,

there seems to be some problem with creating the source tarball from libvistaio.
Any hint?

As far as I know (and see from the prefectly identical output)
git-buildpackage is doing this automatically in case it can not find the
source tarball at the expected location - at least when adding this
option the output remains identically.

I do not think that there is a need to tag

    upstream/<upstream-version>-<debian-version>

If you are properly using pristine-tar as written in our team policy[1]

    git import-orig --pristine-tar /path/to/package_version.orig.tar.gz

the tagging of upstream versions is done automatically (and is lacking
the '-<debian-version>' part).  Once you are done with the Debian
packaging the tag is rather

    debian/<upstream-version>-<debian-version>

However, there is no point in doing this tagging before we upload the
read package to the Debian mirror (in case of an initial package upload
I do even delay the tagging until the package was acceted by ftpmaster.)

Kind regards

       Andreas.
