Package: pristine-tar Version: 1.25 Severity: normal Hello Joey,
/me and my fellow co-maintainers of font packages are happily switching to git for our packages maintenance. As of now, things went well, but I ran today on a problem I can't solve alone with the fonts-android git repository. The repo is : gbp-clone git+ssh://git.debian.org/git/pkg-fonts/fonts-android.git Running "git-buildpackage --git-pristine-tar" there fails with: dh clean dh_testdir dh_auto_clean dh_clean paranoia check failed on params from delta (-z -6) at /usr/bin/pristine-xz line 195. pristine-tar: command failed: pristine-xz --no-verbose --no-debug --no-keep genxz /tmp/pristine-tar.fSCIGUDGxo/wrapper /tmp/pristine-tar.Q9SQAWvPld/fonts-android_4.2.r1.orig.tar.xz.tmp pristine-tar: failed to generate tarball gbp:error: Couldn't checkout "fonts-android_4.2.r1.orig.tar.xz": /usr/bin/pristine-tar returned 255 Manually running pristine-tar gives the same result: bubulle@sesostris:~/src/debian/pkg-fonts/git/fonts-android(master) $ pristine-tar checkout ../fonts-android_4.2.r1.orig.tar.xz paranoia check failed on params from delta (-z -6) at /usr/bin/pristine-xz line 195. pristine-tar: command failed: pristine-xz --no-verbose --no-debug --no-keep genxz /tmp/pristine-tar.vQaW96SfM9/wrapper /tmp/pristine-tar.eUl5Ardku2/fonts-android_4.2.r1.orig.tar.xz.tmp pristine-tar: failed to generate tarball My build machine is still running wheezy and therefore has pristine-tar version 1.25 My fellow co-maintainers do not have this problem with a sid machine (and pristine-tar 1.28).
