I'm asking because my package logwatch is not listed, and I remember I've copied the XS-Vcs fields from another package (XS-Vcs-Browser vs. XS-Vcs-Browse). http://svn.debian.org/wsvn/pkg-logwatch/trunk/debian/control?op=file&rev=0&sc=0 Willi -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".

(I assume the Debian one) Both Vcs-Browser and Vcs-* are meant to contain the current development copy of the repository used to build the official Debian package. The intended use is for either a user who sees a bug tagged pending in the BTS and want to get the patched code or, similarly, for a DD willing to make an NMU and commit the code where appropriate (if possible). See the bug I've pointed to in this thread for the complete doc. Cheers. -- Stefano Zacchiroli -*- PhD in Computer Science ... now what?

There have been documentation for XS-Vcs-* since ages in the BTS as an addendum for the devref (#391023), with patch. The documentation should be ok, except that you can forget the trailing "XS-" prefix since now the fields are officially supported by dpkg. I don't know where now this stuff should be documented (and I've lost a bit of enthusiasm at documenting ...), but feel free to take the current patch text and divert it where appropriate.

There is really no such thing as "proper" capitalization, but that is what dpkg will normalise it to, yeah.

Hi all, The packages listed below use the 'XS-Vcs-Browse' field, which has been obsoleted by the new, official 'Vcs-Browser' field. Please consider upgrading your control files to use that.
