<nthykier> buxy: Re: binNMUs in squeeze-lts - looks like a "no-can-do"
<nthykier> the libxrender one gives me "W: can't get version info for
libxrender/amd64"
<nthykier> (repeat for i386)
<adsb> yeah, you can't binNMU things in a suite that doesn't contain source
for them
<adsb> (or in a suite that they're an overlay for, which is how *-pu work)
<buxy> and if we build them in squeeze, will the build chroot have squeeze-
lts?
<buxy> (assuming we can poke some ftpmaster to clear squeeze-pu afterwards)
<adsb> I don't know
<buxy> thanks, taking it over to #debian-buildd
<ansgar> adsb: squeeze-lts should behave like p-u in that regard, i.e. it is
an overlay over squeeze for dak.
<adsb> ansgar: fair enough, I hadn't looked at the detail on the ftp-master
side. it sounds like that's not how it's implemented in w-b though
<adsb> oh, umm, nvm
<adsb> you mean binNMUing in "squeeze" should work
<ansgar> adsb: Wouldn't that upload to oldstable-p-u (and get rejected)?
<ansgar> I don't know how w-b handles oldstable-p-u vs. -lts.
<adsb> yeah.
cheers,
Holger
