Package: dput Version: 0.9.2.35ubuntu1 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch I've created a patch to add support for sftp transport and the ability to pass an "argument" to a host. The latter allows you to have a single stanza in dput.cf instead of several for almost identical host configurations. I've modified the ppa stanza to take advantage of this feature, enabling me to upload to any ppa without modifying dput.cf by simplying appending 'ppa' with a colon and the launchpad id of the ppa. So, for example, to upload to my own PPA I would type: dput ppa:cody-somerville <package.changes>
I've filed a bug to get this patch included in Ubuntu and figured it would be of interest to Debian as well.
