NAME¶
dpt-repack -- repackaging helper
SYNOPSIS¶
dpt repack --upstream-version
version downloaded file"
DESCRIPTION¶
dpt repack helps creating repackaged tarballs, suitable for feeding
dpkg-source(1).
Work is commenced in three stages:
- •
- dpt repack unpacks the provided upstream tarball.
- •
- debian/repack.local is sourced to remove unsuitable content.
- •
- dpt repack packs the sources again, under a suitable file name in
the form "package_ver.orig.tar.gz" (suffix depending on initial
compression).
dpt repack invokes
debian/repack.local in an environment where
rm and
mv are replaced with functions that reflect the
operations in the
MANIFEST file, if present.
