[PSA] When uploading to Ubuntu, use SSH, not FTP

[Simon Quigley]

Hello,





 - Also, if you're a DD, try `ssh-upload` instead of `ftp-master` or `ftp-eu`



Here's some example config stanzas, for your /etc/dput.cf:

[ssh-upload]
login                   = tsimonq2
fqdn                    = ssh.upload.debian.org
method                  = scp
incoming                = /srv/upload.debian.org/UploadQueue/
allow_dcut              = 1
allowed_distributions   = (?!UNRELEASED|.*-security)

[ssh-ubuntu]
fqdn                    = upload.ubuntu.com
method                  = sftp
incoming                = /ubuntu
login                   = *

[ssh-ppa]
fqdn                    = ppa.launchpad.net
method                  = sftp
incoming                = ~%(ssh-ppa)s
login                   = *

I hope this helps,

There is currently some slight flakiness with the FTP server accepting uploads, for both PPAs and upload.ubuntu.com. The Launchpad team indicated on IRC that they're looking into it. That being said, those issues don't currently affect SSH uploads. It's generally a good idea to do SSH-based uploads regardless: - Instead of `dput ubuntu your_source.changes`, try `ssh-ubuntu` in place of `ubuntu` - Instead of e.g. `dput ppa:lubuntu-dev/backports-staging your_source.changes`, use `dput ssh-ppa:lubuntu-dev/backports-staging your_source.changes` Note, your SSH key has to be in Launchpad for this to work, and you may need to manually specify your Launchpad username in the configuration if it's different from your machine username.
