  1. This contains the fix for the test failure that happened building inside pbuilder due to not being run from a git repo.

  2. Hi Phil,

This "fix" isn't useful because uscan (and probably other tools) strips .git out when generating the .orig.tar, thus the test still fails in the build.

Plus, Debian buildds restrict network access. In other words, this test is gonna fail even without the git check, in official Debian builds. Please just disable the test, which seems to be a clever way to notify you of build failures, but you should have other channels to know about that in Debian, e.g. subscribing to the package on tracker.debian.org.

  3. Oh sorry, I was looking at the salsa repo. Seems this upload here at mentors.d.n has a patch to exit 0 when .git is absent.

Still, please try to keep the packaging repo and uploads in sync, because people work in different ways.

  4. Blair,

Indeed, what is seen on here should be reflected in the git repo. All should be the same for the reasons you stated.

Regards

Phil

  5. Thanks for taking a look. I've ensured that the changes in question are on my salsa repository at https://salsa.debian.org/technomancy-guest/fennel2

For some reason there's something weird about this salsa repo and git gives me false positives telling me that there are always unpushed commits, so it's easy to miss.

  1. As far as I can tell, the two issues flagged by lintian do not come from problems in the fennel package, but bugs in the debian tooling.

For "missing-dep-for-interpreter" it's a lintian bug that has already been fixed: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1041675 (definitely a false positive!)

For "source-ships-excluded-file" it appears to be due to a bug in git-buildpackage which has not been fixed: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1069324 Perhaps there is a workaround, but I haven't been able to find one.

  2. Hi,

Please target the correct distribution i.e. 'unstable' or 'experimental'.

You have marked as "Needs a sponsor", but have yet to file a Request For Sponsorship (RFS) bug[1].

[1] https://mentors.debian.net/sponsors/rfs-howto/

Regards

Phil

  3. Hi,

You have not indicated that you wish a review and sponsorship by toggling "Needs a sponsor" on this page and creating and RFS bug[1].

If you have your own sponsor, you need do nothing. If not please do the above and your package will be looked at in a more timely manner.

Regards

Phil

  4. Thanks. I had been meaning to submit the RFS as my next step, but hadn't found the time until now: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=1078069

Regarding the "UNRELEASED" distribution, I didn't add that section; I've been continuing the work that was started by an actual DD here: https://salsa.debian.org/bandali/fennel/-/blob/debian/latest/debian/README.Debian?ref_type=heads#L121

The original packager has not been able to continue the work to complete this packaging, but he wrote: "Note: We keep the debian/changelog series for the new version as 'UNRELEASED' until it is actually being uploaded". Does an upload to mentors count for that?

  5. Hi,

The package is uploaded by a Debian Developer (DD) and must target a distribution.

As a core reviewer I will not mark a package for DD to review unless it does target a distribution.

Regards

Phil
