git-dpm: ERROR: 'upstream' does not contain previously recorded revision

[Ludovic Rousseau <ludovic.rousseau@gmail.com>]

Hello,

I tried to update my package pykcs11 since the repository moved from SVN to git.
http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/python-modules/packages/pykcs11.git/

I imported a new upstream .orig.tar.gz version as descibed in
https://wiki.debian.org/Python/GitPackaging#New_upstream_release
and could build and upload the package without problem.

Now the command "git-dpm status" fails with:
$ git-dpm status
git-dpm: ERROR: 'upstream' does not contain previously recorded revision '8234fc2de2b89d65661233b357f922494590b5aa'!

and also
$ git-dpm tag
git-dpm: ERROR: 'upstream' differs from recorded one!

I think I missed something.

I don't want to add more errors/problems in the git repository. I am very new to git-dpm process and I don't want to make the repository (more) unusable.

Can someone tell me what I missed and fix the error?
Or describe in detail how to fix the problem?

Thanks
