  • Newer upstream version packaged for RFS/ITP with old one still on mento

    From halfdog@21:1/5 to All on Thu Jan 19 17:30:01 2023
    Hello list,

    While there is the RFS/ITP 0.3.0-1 version package still on mentors

    https://mentors.debian.net/package/guerillabackup

    a new upstream release is available. I updated salsa (without
    pushing yet) and have all packages ready.

    Usually I would just retitle the RFS/ITP and upload the new
    packages to mentors. But this would make the bugtracker issue

    https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=993996

    diverge from the state in the file upload.

    Otherwise deleting the old package would keep bug and upload
    in sync, but also also delete an upload-comment (one that I do
    not see to have much importance to the RFS process, but still).

    So what is the preferred way to do it?

    Kind regards,
    hd

    Just append to the RFS, by mailing [email protected] with the added
    info.

    Package uploaded, RFS appended (and retitled), Salsa pushed
