This was a mistake of mine, I probably failed to write it correctly.

So I understand, if I had included the full sources, then the .asc file would have been included as well? And does this work? - I remember that in the past I was told that the sources are already in the archive, and hence cannot be uploaded again (but I might be wrong on this). Then this two things should be documented: 1. .asc files are always (automatically) included if the upstream sources are included (either by default or by -sa) 2. .asc files cannot be included on their own, but rather require the corresponding upstream sources (which would make sense, indeed). [1] Greetings Helge [1] If I'm right that the upstream source can only be uploaded once, then possibly a sentence that .asc files should only be included at Debian revision 1. -- Dr. Helge Kreutzmann deb...@helgefjell.de Dipl.-Phys. http://www.helgefjell.de/debian.php 64bit GNU powered gpg signed mail preferred Help keep free software "libre": http://www.ffii.de/
