Hi, The patch is actually as trivial as I expected - Inlining it here:
diff --git a/modules/update/update.fetch.inc b/modules/update/update.fetch.inc index 22db6e8..136a500 100644 --- a/modules/update/update.fetch.inc +++ b/modules/update/update.fetch.inc @@ -86,6 +86,9 @@ function _update_refresh() { */ function _update_build_fetch_url($project, $site_key = '') { $default_url = variable_get('update_fetch_url', UPDATE_DEFAULT_URL); + if ($project['name'] == 'drupal') { + $project['name'] = 'debian-uses-own-updates'; + } if (!isset($project['info']['project status url'])) { $project['info']['project status url'] = $default_url; } I feel this has the best of both worlds, and no advantages. Why? • It allows administrators to keep the (very useful) update_status module enabled, alerting them of any new versions of locally-installed packages • Drupal6 core should be updated together with the full system — Responsible administrators will keep the whole system up to date via apt-get/aptitude/… • While this patch will ignore any modules built by dh-make-drupal, those packages are not officially provided by Debian, and alerting about updates is IMHO adequate. -- Gunnar Wolf - gw...@debian.org - (+52-55)5623-0154 / 1451-2244 PGP key 1024D/8BB527AF 2001-10-23 Fingerprint: 0C79 D2D1 2C4E 9CE4 5973 F800 D80E F35A 8BB5 27AF
