I am trying to update Gutenprint to 5.2.11 final but have problem to
import the new source tarball.
First, uscan does not work for me because it considers 5.2.11-pre2 newer
than 5.2.11.
After downloading the source tarball and linking it to
gutenprint_5.2.11.orig.tar.bz2 manually I try to import, but it
complains about practically all files having local changes which would
get overwritten. See below.
Can you update the source and tell me what I did wrong? Thanks.
I don't know for sure the cause of your problems, but I suggest to try
replacing your initial "git clone ..." with "debcheckout -a gutenprint".
Hope that works better for you...
