Hello, my non-free package mgltools-molkit built nicely everywhere, but the armel could yet not be uploaded - blocking the autodocktools to arrive in testing.
I tried to help it out with my OpenMoko running Debian, and while it builds, I cannot upload since the .diff.gz generated by dpkg-buildpackage -sd is not bit-identical to the .diff.gz that is in the archive. The unpacked diff.gz however _is_ identical. You then the the .dsc and the .changes to disagree with the various checksums. I have performed the armel-builds and uploads for a series of other mgltools-* packages, hence while the error may be on my side, I would be somewhat surprised. Is there a standard procedure to follow? Shall I somehow (how?) invoke dpkg-genchanges manually with the .diff.gz being exchanged with the original again? Is there some other trick of the trade? And: if my error report is correct, is the logic possibly flawed to reject the upload even though the contents of the .diff.gz are identical? $ LANG=C diff mgltools-molkit_1.5.4.cvs.20090603-1.diff.gz ../mgltools-molkit_1.5.4.cvs.20090603-1.diff.gz && echo identical ||echo differ Binary files mgltools-molkit_1.5.4.cvs.20090603-1.diff.gz and ../mgltools-molkit_1.5.4.cvs.20090603-1.diff.gz differ differ now with zdiff: $ LANG=C zdiff mgltools-molkit_1.5.4.cvs.20090603-1.diff.gz ../mgltools-molkit_1.5.4.cvs.20090603-1.diff.gz && echo identical ||echo different identical Many thanks Steffen
