*sigh* Thanks for catching this: it wasn't mentioned because I didn't make this change (AFAIK) and was unaware of it concerning this upload; I believe what I uploaded to mentors.debian.net for 1.2.8-1 was this: ftp://ftp.coredump.us/debian-packages/mumble/mumble-1.2.8/ but I see that indeed the package now in unstable contains this file, and a debdiff between that and the package linked to above shows the debian/mumble-server.init (and no other differences). At one time I had accidentily included a debian/mumble-server.init (in a prior version) because it's something upstream includes in their PPA package for Ubuntu so I was testing using the file but had not committed it to git. I had also configured git-buildpackage with "export = WC" to export the working copy rather than only what's in git to allow doing a debuild of things I'm not sure I want to commit yet, so the file got included in one of the uploads -- I removed it on the next upload which is why 1.2.8~7~g76f6870-2 in Jessie doesn't contain it. I'll double-check with my package sponsor to see if he has any insight on what happened in this case. Other than that, do you have a suggestion as to how I should proceed from here? > > debdiff attached. > > > > I would have uploaded 1.2.8-1 earlier but my laptop had a hardware > > failure and didn't have other hardware to read the disk. > > [The Lenovo T61p uses an Nvidia G84 GPU which was misdesigned such > > that it eventually fails, requiring motherboard replacement.] > > I and my package sponsor were unaware that the sid->jessie > > transition time had been extended from 5 to 10 days for October. > > Hmmm, it was mentioned on d-d-a five times. Yes I see that (Johnathan -- thanks for the links). Ugh. Sorry I missed this, but now that we've caught an error in thie upload, I'm sort of glad that I did. -- Chris -- Chris Knadle chris.kna...@coredump.us -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
