[08:22] <om26er> when i do 'quilt import foo.patch'    the patches directory is created in the source tree and not in debian/  what am i doing wrong?
[08:50] <hakermania> hello, I have successfully packaged my program. I want to know how exactly should I upload the package to REVU. I've signed the files with my GPG key which is the same with the one I have mentioned at the Lanchpad open ID. So, there is no problem with this. The only problem is that I don't know how exactly to make dput upload the package for me to revu. What is the exact command? The files generated so far are: some-1.0/ some_1.0-0ub
[08:59] <geser> hakermania: did you call "debuild -S" inside some-1.0/ ?
[09:00] <hakermania> ofcourse :) First debuild then debuild -S and last debuild -b (to check if the .deb is working properly)
[09:01] <geser> dput revu some_1.0…_source.changes
[09:02] <hakermania> only the source.chages file?
[09:03] <geser> yes
[09:03] <geser> you might need to "debuild -S -sa" to get also the source mention in the .changes file (and get it included in the upload)
[09:05] <geser> om26er: see /usr/share/doc/quilt/README.source
[09:08] <hakermania> Ok, I did so. But I think you are wrong.The file some_1.0-0ubuntu1_source.changes includes only some info and my GPG signature. How will revu get the whole source if I upload only this file (which is 1.2KB) ?
[09:12] <hakermania> geser: ?
[09:13] <angelo> Hi!
[09:15] <angelo> I'd like to help in packaging. Is there some work i could do?
[09:15] <geser> hakermania: dput looks at those entries in the Files: section in .changes and uploads those files too
[09:15] <hakermania> geser: Ok, thx very helpful
[09:18] <hakermania> angelo:  https://wiki.ubuntu.com/UbuntuDevelopment go to the Packaging section to read more.
[09:24] <angelo> thank u hakermania :-)
[19:21] <gaurava> Hi All .. I am a newbie and trying to create a sample patch file following the instructions mentioned over here <https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/HowToFix>
[19:22] <gaurava> But facing some problem .. can anybody help me out
[19:53] <ari-tczew> gaurava: what's the problem?
[19:55] <gaurava> When I am running the command  "$debuild -S -as" I am getting the following error
[19:55] <gaurava> unknown Debian architecture s, you must specify GNU system type, too at /usr/bin/dpkg-architecture line 144.
[19:56] <gaurava> I am running Ubuntu 10.10
[19:58] <mr_pouit> I guess you want '-sa', not '-as'
[19:58] <ari-tczew> gaurava: ^^
[19:58] <ari-tczew> or use debuild -S then pbuilder build *.dsc
[20:01] <gaurava> -sa is working for me ..
[20:01] <gaurava> Just thinking .. is the sequencing of the options matters?
[20:01] <ebroder> "-sa" is a single option
[20:02] <ebroder> "-as", on the other hand, is the option "-a" with value "s"
[20:02] <gaurava> oh ok .. now I can  make a sense from the error. . seems like -a is to specify the architect and it is taking 's' as its value
[20:03] <gaurava> thanks for the info ..
[20:04] <gaurava> but i cant find these information in a quick glance of 'man debuild' output .. ny idea ?
[20:04] <ebroder> debuild passes most of its arguments to dpkg-buildpackage
[20:06] <gaurava> thanks all .. now i am able to follow it in a much better manner ..
