Hello mentors, I want to import a new svn snapshot to update a Debian package, the salsa git repo is already configured for gbp, so I did
$ gbp import-orig -u1.5+svn38408 ../upstreamsvn/mplayer upstream/mplayer is a directory with the unpacked svn checkout. Gbp creates a ../upstreamsvn/mplayer_1.5+svn38408.orig.tar.gz archieve (not a tar.xz); it also uses tar.gz in the pristine-tar branch. One problem with the tar.gz is that debian/gbp.conf has compression = xz so when I push to salsa the salsa-ci fails because it searches for a tar.xz archieve gbp:info: All Orig tarballs 'mplayer_1.5+svn38408.orig.tar.xz' found at '/builds/Lorenzo.ru.g-guest/mplayer/debian/output' gbp:info: Creating /builds/Lorenzo.ru.g-guest/mplayer/debian/output/mplayer_1.5+svn38408.orig.tar.xz gbp:error: Error creating mplayer_1.5+svn38408.orig.tar.xz: Pristine-tar couldn't checkout "mplayer_1.5+svn38408.orig.tar.xz": fatal: path 'mplayer_1.5+svn38408.orig.tar.xz.delta' does not exist in 'refs/heads/pristine-tar' pristine-tar: git show refs/heads/pristine-tar:mplayer_1.5+svn38408.orig.tar.xz.delta failed pristine-tar: successfully generated ../mplayer_1.5+svn38408.orig.tar.gz gbp:info: Disabling 'cleaner' hook gbp:info: Extracting 'mplayer_1.5+svn38408.orig.tar.xz' to '/builds/Lorenzo.ru.g-guest/mplayer/debian/output/mplayer-tmp' tar: /builds/Lorenzo.ru.g-guest/mplayer/debian/output/mplayer_1.5+svn38408.orig.tar.xz: Cannot open: No such file or directory tar: Error is not recoverable: exiting now gbp:error: Couldn't unpack '/builds/Lorenzo.ru.g-guest/mplayer/debian/output/mplayer_1.5+svn38408.orig.tar.xz': it exited with 2 Is there a way to tell gbp import-orig to use xz compression?
