NAME

dbp-importdsc - Import a Debian source package into darcs-buildpackage archive

SYNOPSIS

dbp-importdsc dsc_name

DESCRIPTION

dbp-importdsc imports a Debian source package into a darcs-buildpackage archive, notes the package version in the configs, and commits the change. All information, including package name, version, Debian diffs, and upstream source, is automatically detected from the source package.

This program will automatically detect if the upstream sources have already been imported, and if so, will not attempt to re-import them again.

It is an error to run dbp-importdsc on a package whose Debian version already exists in the archive. It is also an error to run dbp-importdsc on a package when a newer version already exists in the archive. dbp-importdsc detects both conditions and will terminate without causing harm.

OPTIONS

dsc_name
Gives the path to the Debian .dsc file from the source package.

BUGS

Neither GPG signatures nor MD5 sums are verified when unpacking Debian source packages.
This program does not deal well with Debian native packages (ones that lack a Debian diff.gz). It will probably work, but building the package later might result in a non-native package.

FILES

The following specific files are used by this application:

~/.darcs-buildpackage
Specifies the location of the canonical Debian and upstream repositories.

ENVIRONMENT

This application uses no environment variables directly, but other programs it calls may do so.
