[dput-ng-maint] Bug#696659: Security uploads not working

[Paul Tagliamonte]

tags 696659 + pending
thanks

Hey Moritz,

I've pushed a fix in git. If you wouldn't mind reviewing the diff[1] and
ensuring that it satisfies your concerns, that would be great.

High level logic is, given a exec problem (dput.utils:95), and the file
we're s'posed to run isn't on the filesystem, duck the error and
complain to the user, but allow the upload.

Arno, can you ACK this change?
