Hi: I'm a recent DD. A developer has suggested I NMU a very tiny change to his package. <http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=235828> I believe I followed all of the required steps for an NMU--minimal changes, added a minor .1 version after the Debian version, closed the bug in the changelog and used my name for the change but did not change debian/control. I then generated and signed a .changes file and am attempting to upload the NMU to 7-days delayed. (I also tested the new revised package, ran lintian/linda, and rebuilt it with pbuilder, no problems.) My understanding is that it should be as simple as: dupload --to delayed libid3tag_0.15.0b-3.1.changes I'm a little confused about how dupload works, however, and the manpage isn't quite answering my questions. I get: dupload note: no announcement will be sent. Uploading (ftp) to ftp-master.debian.org:/org/ftp.debian.org/incoming/DELAYED/7-day/ [ job libid3tag_0.15.0b-3.1 from libid3tag_0.15.0b-3.1.changes libid3tag_0.15.0b-3.1.dsc, md5sum ok libid3tag0-dev_0.15.0b-3.1_i386.deb, md5sum ok libid3tag0_0.15.0b-3.1_i386.deb, md5sum ok libid3tag_0.15.0b-3.1.diff.gz, md5sum ok libid3tag_0.15.0b-3.1.changes ok ] Uploading (ftp) to delayed (ftp-master.debian.org) [ Uploading job libid3tag_0.15.0b-3.1 libbid3tag_0.15.0b-3.1.dsc 0.6 kB, ok libid3tag0-dev_0.15.0b-3.1_i386.deb 33.7 kB, ok libid3tag0_0.15.0b-3.1_i386.deb 33.1 kB, ok libid3tag_0.15.0b-3.1.diff.gz 3.6 kB, ok libid3tag_0.15.0b-3.1.changes 1.1 kB, ok ajkessel@ftp-master.debian.org's password: But my gluck password is apparently not the password for scp to ftp-master. As I understand it, I shouldn't even need an account on ftp-master (and probably I don't have one), because I should use ftp and not scp to upload packages. But if I change dupload.conf for delayed to use ftp rather than scpb, I get: libid3tag_0.15.0b-3.1.dsc 0.6 kBdupload fatal error: Can't upload libid3tag_0.15.0b-3.1.dsc: Could not create file. at /usr/bin/dupload line 506 Presumably this is because /org/ftp.debian.org/incoming/DELAYED/7 is not accessible through anonymous FTP. Am I missing something? Do I understand the process for this NMU correctly? Any pointers would be appreciaetd. - Adam Kessel http://adam.rosi-kessel.org
