daedeloth | I'm trying to upload a ppa, but I keep getting this error: | 12:59 |
---|---|---|
daedeloth | Could not find distribution 'ppa'. | 12:59 |
daedeloth | (in the rejected email) | 13:00 |
cjwatson | daedeloth: What dput command did you use? | 13:06 |
daedeloth | dput ppa:showpad ../lsyncd_2.1.5-2showpad1_source.changes | 13:07 |
daedeloth | http://paste.ubuntu.com/12320625/ | 13:08 |
daedeloth | that's my dput.cf | 13:08 |
cjwatson | daedeloth: What's the "debian" doing there? | 13:08 |
cjwatson | (in incoming) | 13:08 |
daedeloth | I don't know, shouldn't it be in there? | 13:09 |
cjwatson | daedeloth: No. Where did that come from? | 13:09 |
daedeloth | https://help.launchpad.net/Packaging/PPA/Uploading | 13:10 |
daedeloth | well, except that I replaced ubuntu with debian | 13:10 |
cjwatson | daedeloth: Launchpad doesn't support building PPAs for Debian | 13:10 |
daedeloth | what is all this about then? https://launchpad.net/debian | 13:10 |
cjwatson | That's an import so that we can copy packages from there into Ubuntu | 13:10 |
daedeloth | https://launchpad.net/debian/+ppas | 13:10 |
cjwatson | That's a page listing zero things | 13:11 |
daedeloth | oh, bummer. | 13:11 |
cjwatson | Also, that documentation is a little out of date, the modern form is ~<your_launchpad_id>/ubuntu/ppa - I'll update that | 13:11 |
daedeloth | ok, I feel silly for trying. I thought launchpad had debian packages too | 13:12 |
cjwatson | Import, but not building | 13:12 |
cjwatson | So, you can build it for Ubuntu by changing to "incoming = ~showpad/ubuntu/ppa" and putting an Ubuntu release name at the top of your changelog, but I'm afraid you'll have to build for Debian some other way | 13:13 |
daedeloth | ok, well, since I've already spent too much hopes on this, I'll try to build it for ubuntu to start with ;) | 13:14 |
daedeloth | so... any thoughts on how to get packages on debian? or is that a big no-no here? | 13:17 |
cjwatson | Setting up sbuild locally isn't too hard | 13:18 |
daedeloth | but I want to have an apt repository where the files can be pulled from | 13:18 |
cjwatson | Right, so you'd feed the output to reprepro. There may be some publicly-available PPA-like service elsewhere that will do it all for you, but I don't know of one | 13:20 |
