[Bug 246493] Re: Please backport git-buildpackage 0.4.33 from Intrepid to Hardy
Michael, Thanks for the clarification. I wasn't away that backport requests used the Status field differently. I wonder if it makes sense to note this in the wiki somewhere? I understand the increased complexity of source level porting. Unfortunately I don't think I'll have any cycles to work on this, esp. considering the Intrepid chroot workaround I mentioned earlier. Feel free to switch this bug back to Incomplete if that makes the most sense.

[Bug 246493] Re: Please backport git-buildpackage 0.4.33 from Intrepid to Hardy
Michael, Can you clarify the rather large changes to backport? Also, I don't see the value in setting this bug to Incomplete. Are you soliciting more information from us? https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Bugs/Status suggests Won't Fix is more appropriate if this bug is to be ignored for Hardy. I'm setting it back to New for now and the Bug Contact (who is that, anyway?) can mark it as Won't Fix.

[Bug 246493] Re: Please backport git-buildpackage 0.4.33 from Intrepid to Hardy
I agree. I was unable to get git-import-orig to work at all from Hardy. The traceback when run on a xxx.orig.tar.gz file was: Traceback (most recent call last): File /usr/bin/git-import-orig, line 211, in module sys.exit(main(sys.argv)) File /usr/bin/git-import-orig, line 181, in main import_source_tree(repo, orig_dir, version, options.filter, verbose=not is_empty) File /usr/bin/git-import-orig, line 56, in import_source_tree old = set(repo.index_files()) File /var/lib/python-support/python2.5/gbp/git_utils.py, line 84, in index_files files = [ file for file in out[0].split('\0') if file ] IndexError: list index out of range My workaround was to use a very big hammer. I created an Intrepid chroot and used get-import-orig from there. -- Please backport git-buildpackage 0.4.33 from Intrepid to Hardy https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/246493 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backports Testing Team, which is subscribed to Hardy Backports. -- ubuntu-backports mailing list ubuntu-backports@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports
