Dear Maintainer, I use --extra-package to build new versions of packages that grow new dependencies not yet in Debian. While waiting for the latter to clear NEW (or before the ITP-fixing upload), I can use --extra-package on the dependency to ensure that it builds correctly. That's great, but --extra-package is rather inconvenient because if I have to depend on multiple .debs, I need to type out a bunch of - --extra-package options. E.g. to add both python-foo and python3-foo. I have two suggestions to make this a little nicer. 1) Allow for passing wildcards to --extra-package. Then I could do something like `sbuild ... --extra-package=/path/to/itp/*.deb` and have it pick up all the debs in that directory. 2) Provide a shortcut option for --extra-package. Thanks! - -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 4.8.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages sbuild depends on: ii adduser 3.115 ii apt-utils 1.3.1 ii libsbuild-perl 0.72.0-2 pn perl:any <none> Versions of packages sbuild recommends: ii debootstrap 1.0.86 Versions of packages sbuild suggests: ii autopkgtest 4.2 pn deborphan <none> ii wget 1.18-4 - -- no debconf information -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCAAdFiEEhBcVftvnPZ6sHlObEm61Y6dLBr8FAlgrlHIACgkQEm61Y6dL Br8xwg/+ITh7YkjkCepO3BIccxeCzym2+zWzhJk2jXTu2hQEV7FBObRj91SnAGBE VuOmr+XXVs6jXuA6QzkN9GDyM2HaGIx14SM/a6wTi/m5KW20ETaP0wftbTVyOPtN mE35H+5y+qAD4jF4AS6QxbF87dEqKcdZbXqAhddNzF+zsD9bfXs8wkfZ5dA1YJKr ASJVtoKh8KtC29gcNo5i2ReA/ma3zEClc3aSTt6KemzFmq1HckFPo9w2ZTOn3kSU q5cUpNHLzuDfw6NhulQo19p5+oCXRlb8Qamru3CcINZgPXi3TxYbImZybEnYg6Ha Pdd04h/VzJUsUZGumuEdWD7hbUqg3oCaGSTCe9quo0BJk77er5HRPjoRm/CA4k6Z Wb8TuIs3qckJT4g5NPPx18ymUxhVWESVHbu+3es4kd7k5WjyJJc8mxEwvJF/qqBY Fv7IdUQoObgBIFrmdmR6RzV59qWumxFmKE8yoDJ7LGm8jhb6PsHmc1I1lyedHe62 DXkLZL9ReqgCjtky2bLHzr8Le8vrQ5hqworPzssK9doqG+ppqePsnoKu7fxYCUeW t21eRIVG9iNfoSyOE2MtrokOApEq5F8XBH5kxB/e7QiEjOAagTgtgAuUDEmzmSu+ 1Qlzh7a+co1h7+XiKAhvfJnDItP7U/XOiHL2xYfEflVGJ4ZCNjg= =9rc2 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
