ok -- I have just git svn dcommitted few relevant changes: * 804f96c - (HEAD, git-svn, master) Progress to use most recent origin/hackathonjune2012-brad (43 seconds ago) [yoh] * 1cc6a96 - debian/watch - parse upstream's single number version (e.g. 55000 -> 5.5-000) (45 seconds ago) [yoh] * 7aefbdd - get-orig-source: fetch tarball from github of pre-release snapshots (46 seconds ago) [yoh]
so now you can just do debian/rules get-orig-source and depending on either it is a packaging of a released version or of git tarball -- it should fetch a corresponding tarball for you from uscan or from github directly. Tarball will match treeish in the latest debian changelog entry. all patches still apply fine as I see ;-) On Thu, 21 Jun 2012, Luis Ibanez wrote: > Hi Andreas, > Thanks for jumping in. > On Thu, Jun 21, 2012 at 2:37 AM, Andreas Tille <[email protected]> wrote: > > The fis-gtm package is actually really important and I would be happy to > > jump in but I somehow lost track in all these discussions.
