Then I'm ok then with having 'bdist_deb' be the name and using the

Andrew, what do you think about this solution?
It's already committed as of a couple days ago in the "old-stable"
branch and I just merged it into the master branch.
I'll release 0.3.1 (from the old-stable branch) and 0.4 (from the
master
branch) with this soon.

In reviewing the gerry-reno git branch and the old-stable branch I
don't see where there are any user-options declared in
stdeb/command/bdist_deb.py. Shouldn't the same user-options be there
as are in sdist_dsc.py? The 'bdist_deb' command usefulness would be
very limited without the ability to pass options to it and hence to
'sdist_dsc'.
What options do you want to pass to it? bdist_deb does very little other
than call dpkg-buildpackage on the result of sdist_dsc.
As far as how -- that's standard distutils. You should be able to follow
the lead from the sdist_dsc command, for example.
Well, for starters, we need to be able to pass the option
'--ignore-single-version-externally-managed' and beyond that we need
to pass other options down to sdist_dsc, things like
'--ignore-install-requires'.
Just pass the arguments directly to sdist_dsc. It should be something
like this:
python setup.py sdist_dsc --ignore-single-version-externally-managed
--ignore-install-requires bdist_deb
How's that going to work? You have 'sdist_dsc' on the command line as
well as 'bdist_deb'. 'bdist_deb' also calls 'sdist_dsc' internally but
this time it would be without any arguments? How can that work?
Regards,
Gerry
