2009-08-06 13:42:32 Alexander Sack description Binary package hint: bzr-builddeb As discussed, by debian policy get-orig-source always gets the latest upstream tarball and not the one matching the current topmost changelog version. In consequence, bzr builddeb shouldnt use that in the long run. As a bunch of branches might still use it, the suggested approach is to add a --policy-compliant=yes|no to bzr-builddeb and use "no" for one or two cycles, while spitting out a warning; then after one or two cycles we switch to "yes" by default, which doesnt use the get-orig-source anymore. In the same run, I suggest to start discussing with debian how to specify a "get current source" feature.
