liam-r@rbasak Sorry to bother you again but I tried omitting the first "dch -i" in my workflow and still can't get that man page to update. I can see that my change is recorded in util-linux_2.30.1-0ubuntu5_amd.changes but I still get the typo after running dpkg -i with the .deb on my artful system. Maybe I have something set up incorrectly or I'm not actually replacing the version on the artful system? I did track upstream to ke11:23
liam-rwill patch there if it isn't already but I think I'll need to figure this out anyway for future bugs11:23
rbasakliam-r: you can run "debdiff <old dsc> <new dsc>" to see if your change actually made it into the source package11:24
rbasakliam-r: can you pastebin that?11:24
liam-rI messed about a bit so there's 3 files as I added a second changelog entry, I've tested building at all stages https://pastebin.com/8UHQBaHV11:32
liam-rthanks11:32
liam-rrbasak I just realized you probably meant to debdiff the .dsc in pbuilder/artful_result but I get some errors when I do that. New paste is at https://pastebin.com/z3Gqxy38 . I need to go back to the day job for a few hours but I'll leave the chat logged in.12:08
rbasakliam-r: util-linux_2.30.1-0ubuntu5.dsc looks fine to me12:17
liam-rrbasak: I ran dpkg -x on the generated .deb I've been installing and I can't find "mount.8" anywhere in the contents. Maybe I've been building or installing the wrong thing? There's a mount.txt note in Documentation that says "== Notes to developers ==14:41
liam-rThe final solution will be libmount/mount.c as the14:41
liam-rmount(8) command implementation. So, let's keep the14:41
liam-rcurrent mount/* code in maintenance mode and don't try to14:41
liam-rrewrite it :-)14:41
liam-r"14:41
liam-rso maybe it's to do with the package rather than my build of it?14:42
rbasakliam-r: the util-linux source package builds many binary packages with many different names. Are you installing the right one?14:46
rbasakliam-r: looks like you want mount....deb14:47
liam-rrbasak: Thanks, that's it. I had also just  thought to mangled the man for fsck and it shows when I install the util-linux deb.15:02
liam-rAs a matter of interest how did you figure out that mount.....deb would be the package? Did you go through the build for util-linux or is there an easier way?15:02
rbasak$ dpkg -S mount.815:06
rbasakmount: /usr/share/man/man8/umount.8.gz15:06
rbasakmount: /usr/share/man/man8/mount.8.gz15:06
rbasakIt's a fair question :)15:06
liam-rAh ok I had no idea that they could be built from another package and deployed like that. I'll need to sit down with some .deb documentation for a night or two I think :) Thanks again for helping me out so much I was going crazy trying to figure out what I was doing15:08
rbasakNo problem.15:15
rbasakIt's not built from another package.15:15
rbasakSource packages exist in a separate namespace from binary packages.15:15
rbasakOne source package builds one or more binary packages.15:15
rbasakCollorary: each binary package is built from exactly one source package.15:16
liam-rAh it begins to make sense. Thanks15:19
cfsHello, I'm pinging about sponsorship for LP:1716047 (fix trusty's rustc control file).19:41
