This question is on my ToDo list for a while:
> Might want to add a debian/upstream file.
>
> https://wiki.debian.org/UpstreamMetadata
I would like to include Upstream information in my packages, but not in a
redundant way. To my knowledge there are currently two places, where to put
such information:
1) debian/upstream [1][2]
2) debian/copyright [3]
While option 1 seems to be more specific, it points to a non-existent dep.
option 2 is less detailed, but points to an existent dep with status
'candidate'.
My personal preference would also go to a separate file debian/upstream,
because this information is not really releated to copyright.
Are there any common denominators, where to put upstream metadata?
Cheers,
Mathias
