Bug Description

Starting with r1011, the importer reverted the changes back to 1.287 as that's what it was importing and then reimported all the other changes on top of it. The lp:ubuntu/casper branch was being used as the bzr branch and should've been up to date with 1.314 as of r1010.

Revision history for this message
James Westby (james-w) wrote :

It looks like casper was recently "unblocked" from the state where a human had
changed the history and so the importer had stopped acting on the package.

When that happened it looked at the old revisions again, and decided that the
branch wasn't complete as it didn't have a .bzr-builddeb/default.conf file declaring
the package native (or the other way around, that it did have a file.)

It therefore "helped" by making the branch "correct" and replacing the history that
was there.

That could be fixed by pushing an old copy of the branch (the dead head should still
be present on LP if needed) over the top, which will move the importer back to ignoring
the package.

Thanks,

James
