I just caught up on the .orig.tar thread and wanted to note to everyone:
- tag2upload final development, in accordance with the plan agreed with
ftpmaster, is proceeding nicely.
We are writing integration tests for everything, and almost have an
end-to-end test of the whole thing, with its three different nodes.
- tag2upload will improve the situation with .orig.tar because the
tag2upload server will always ensure that the uploaded source package
is prepared using an .orig.tar that dak will be happy with.
It won't matter what you're using locally for, e.g., the purpose of
feeding sbuild.
So, teams and individual maintainers that switch over to tag2upload
will be able to forget about a lot of this stuff.
Thanks a lot for the update, and also thanks for all the work that
everyone has put in to make this happen.
