At least this matches what we currently have in unstable, so I proceeded with the actual upload afer your above "looks good to me" (and pushed it as well to the git repo, but let me know if I did something you do not like that way in the repo). > > the proposed debdiff [...] still > > contains the debian/.gitignore removal > > I assume you're using debuild -I, which excludes various files including > .gitignore, resulting in a diff between the git tree on Salsa and the > source package in the archive (and therefore also the dgit view). > > I normally build source packages with just -I.git (plus some other > specific patterns like vim swapfiles, but not -I) to avoid having > debian/**/.gitignore disappear, so the 0.20220716-2 currently in bookworm > will have been built like that.

Yes the final upload done now was done via dpkg-buildpackage -S -d -nc -I.git now to have the .gitignore files still included as previously. (fcgiwrap has been uploaded as well, but that is for the other bug). That means I think we now could release the git update through security, knowning at least the fallouts for handle for the next point release. Thanks again a lot for your time! Regards, Salvatore
