Package: devscripts
Version: 2.15.3
Severity: normal
Usertags: uscan
uscan outputs
"No upstream tarball downloaded. No further processing with
mk_origtargz ..."
and exits with error code 1.
This is a warning and not an error and wrong, too, as the source would
be downloadable:
uscan --download-current-version will result in
>[..]
>Newest version on remote site is 2.0.1, local version is 2.0.1
> => Forcing download as requested
>-- Downloading updated package htop-2.0.1.tar.gz
>-- Checking for common possible upstream OpenPGP signatures
>-- Successfully downloaded updated package htop-2.0.1.tar.gz
>-- Successfully symlinked /htop-2.0.1.tar.gz to /htop_2.0.1.orig.tar.gz.
>-- Scan finished
which is fine.
The result of this warning-as-error is then e.g.:
https://tracker.debian.org/pkg/htop
>Action needed
>Problems while searching for a new upstream version
> [Severity] high
>uscan had problems while searching for a new upstream version:
>No upstream tarball downloaded. No further processing with
mk_origtargz ...
So kindly please fix uscan and update in jessie-backports for DSA use
(which will then fix UDD and tracker.d.o again).
