Hello again, a follow up, mostly on 'mergeWithUpstream'. fredag den 22 januari 2010 klockan 16:29 skrev gregor herrmann detta: > On Fri, 22 Jan 2010 11:01:26 +0100, Mats Erik Andersson wrote: > > > let me do a quick status poll in order to prepare a > > possible ITP attempt.

I have also in the meantime created in the repository 'trunk/libcache-historical-perl/' and I have imported a first 'debian/' into that directory. However, I did not use 'svn-inject', simply out of inexperience, but instead the property 'mergeWithUpstream' on 'debian/' allows me to make test builds of the Debian package. It works well! My question is now this: May I for some time leave the property 'mergeWithUpstream' set to '1', until I get the hang of using your way? I failed to browse into http://svn.debian.org/viewsvn/pkg-perl/branches/upstream/ so I cannot tell if the command svn cp libcache-historical-perl_0.03.orig.tar.gz \ svn+ssh://svn.debian.org/svn/pkg-perl/branches/upstream/libcache... would be the right next step to go, possibly after creating the very same directory. I find it easier for now to only see the package relevant files, instead of 'poluting' them with the upstream source. My present steps I learned from the Debian Games Team. Competition is tough! Best regards for now, Mats Erik Andersson
