Package: dput-ng Version: 1.2 Severity: normal I use sftp to upload to Launchpad (for Ubuntu and PPAs) because ftp timeouts for me even on relatively small uploads. dput-ng doesn't seem to work right with sftp uploads. Here's my ~/.dput.cfwhich was sufficient with classic dput:
[ubuntu] fqdn = upload.ubuntu.com method = sftp incoming = ubuntu login = jbicha [ppa] fqdn = ppa.launchpad.net method = sftp incoming = ~%(ppa)s/ubuntu login = jbicha And here's the error: $ dput ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3-staging ../build-area/gnome-icon-theme_3.7.0~git20121203.372f0e3a-0ubuntu1_source.changes Uploading gnome-icon-theme using sftp to ppa (host: ppa.launchpad.net; directory: ~gnome3-team/gnome3-staging/ubuntu) running allowed-distribution: check whether a local profile permits uploads to the target distribution running checksum: verify checksums before uploading running suite-mismatch: check the target distribution for common errors running check-debs: makes sure the upload contains a binary package running gpg: check GnuPG signatures before the upload gpg: Signature made Sat 22 Dec 2012 02:05:12 PM EST using RSA key ID EBFE6C7D gpg: Good signature from "Jeremy Bicha <jer...@bicha.net>" gpg: aka "Jeremy Bicha <jbi...@ubuntu.com>" gpg: WARNING: This key is not certified with a trusted signature! gpg: There is no indication that the signature belongs to the owner.
