Please sync pastedeploy 1.5.0-1 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

Please sync pastedeploy 1.5.0-1 (main) from Debian unstable (main)

Explanation of the Ubuntu delta and why it can be dropped:
The Ubuntu delta can be dropped because it consisted on enabling the test suite,
however, the tests have been dropped from upstream tarball. According to the upstream
changelog (docs/news.txt):

"* Excluded tests from release distributions"

For this reason, we can drop the delta.

Changelog entries since current oneiric version 1.3.3-3ubuntu2:

pastedeploy (1.5.0-1) unstable; urgency=low

  * New upstream release
  * Convert to dh_python2
    - recommend python-pastescript >= 1.7.3-6~
  * Source format changed to 3.0 (quilt)
  * Standards-Version bumped to 3.9.2 (no changes needed)

I hope you understand that you have to sync the whole package (as in all source packages that use the same namespace) or nothing

[Andres Rodriguez (andreserl)]

Hi Piotr,

Thank you for your concerns. And yes I understand, however in Ubuntu the sync is done by an Ubuntu Archive Admin. The process is as follows:

1. Request Sync
2. If subscriber is not a core dev or MOTU, subscribe to ubuntu-sponsors for an ACK. (In my case i'm just a MOTU)
3. Once package is ACK'ed, subscribe to ubuntu-archive
4. Archive admin will proceed with the sync from debian (sync the source package)

More info about this process, here [1]:

ok, let me be more clear: you have to sync paste, pastedeploy,
pastescript and pastewebkit source packages AT THE SAME TIME or you will
break them. All these packages share "paste" namespace and thus have to
use the same sys.path entry (i.e. you cannot build some of them using
dh_pysuport and some using dh_python2)

Piotr,

*ALL* of those packages have already been synced but pastedeploy.

The sync process is basically this:

If Ubuntu does not contain a delta in a package, then it gets automatically synced from debian (which is the case of pastescript and pastewebkit).

If the package does contain an Ubuntu delta, it needs to get examined by a developer, and determine whether we should keep the delta or not (in paste we had a delta which has been dropped and the package has *already* been synced). This leaves pastedeploy, which I reviewed and determined that the delta can be dropped. For this reason I filed the sync bug report. I hope this helps!

Thank you again for your concerns!

Regards,

[Piotr Ożarowski (piotr)]

well, then the first sentence of this bug should mention that pastedeploy is currently not usable without this sync, no? ;-P

[Dave Walker (davewalker)]

pastedeploy 1.5.0-1 builds on amd64. Sync request ACK'd.
