Hi Joost, I tried to upload backports of r-cran-mime and r-cran-httpuv to Jessie backports since I intend to backport some packages depending from these. Thanks for your initial packaging.
Both packages were rejected by ftpmaster due to wrong size hashes of the orig.tar.gz. For r-cran-mime I fixed this by comparing what I get via `apt-get source r-cran-mime` with the upstream download tarball. Both are identical and thus I fixed the Git repository via gbp import-orig --pristine-tar r-cran-mime_0.4.orig.tar.gz When doing the same with r-cran-httpuv_1.3.3.orig.tar.gz I realised that the pristine-tar in the Git repository is identical with the upstream download (httpuv_1.3.3.tar.gz) but the file inside the Debian archive via apt-get source has a different size. I suspect something is wrong with your workflow either how you create the pristine tar branch (I recommend the command above) or the way you are using gbp buildpackage. Please check your workflow to make sure all three files (upstream, pristine-tar and upload) will be identical. I'll leave the r-cran-httpuv pristine tar untouched and will upload the backport based on the apt-get source result since I have no good idea for this case. Kind regards Andreas. ----- Forwarded message from Debian FTP Masters <ftpmas...@ftp-master.debian.org> ----- Date: Tue, 12 Apr 2016 17:35:20 +0000 From: Debian FTP Masters <ftpmas...@ftp-master.debian.org> To: Debian Science Team <debian-science-maintainers@lists.alioth.debian.org>, Andreas Tille <ti...@debian.org> Subject: r-cran-httpuv_1.3.3-3~bpo8+1_amd64.changes REJECTED r-cran-httpuv_1.3.3-3~bpo8+1.dsc: Invalid size hash for r-cran-httpuv_1.3.3.orig.tar.gz: According to the control file the size hash should be 426665, but r-cran-httpuv_1.3.3.orig.tar.gz has 408947.
