NAME¶
dput.cf - Debian package upload tool configuration fileDESCRIPTION¶
This manpage gives a brief overview of dput’s configuration file and the available options in it. dput is a tool to upload Debian packages to the archive.FILES AND FORMAT¶
dput reads, in order, these files: 1./etc/dput.cf
2.~/.dput.cf
3.The file supplied via command line argument
By default all configuration file locations are parsed, and overlaid in a
additive manner. This way both, entire profiles and actual settings within a
profile is inherited from any parent location defining a key within the
current scope.
dput.cf consists of different groups of configuration options, one for each host
where you want to be able to upload packages. Hosts are defined using an
identifier header with a short name for the host, enclosed in square brackets.
Note that only if multiple such headers are encountered in the configuration,
only the group following the last header is considered. This is done to avoid
confusion when overriding a global configuration file with a user-specific
one. There’s a special identifier, [DEFAULT], which holds default
parameters for all the hosts. The defaults can be overridden by redefining
them again in each host section.
SUPPORTED KEYS¶
These keys are supported in dput.cf files. For their meaning refer to dput(5). allow_dcut, allow_unsigned_uploads, allowed_distributions, default_host_main, default_keyid, fqdn, distributions, hash, incoming, method, login, passive_ftp, post_upload_command, pre_upload_command, run_lintian.UNSUPPORTED LEGACY KEYS¶

support for the rsync method.

This key is not supported. Use the
--delayed switch from the command line, or set incoming
to the actual delayed directory if you really rely on this key.
run_dinstall
Not supported. Please submit a post-upload hook if
you’d like to run dinstall.

SCP compression is enabled by default. This is, however
not configurable currently.

Not supported. Please switch to the sftp method
which supports your options from ssh_config(5) natively.
