[Pkg-pciutils-discuss] Ready for upload?

[Matthew Wilcox]

If you're subscribed to the pkg-pciutils-commits list, you'll've noticed
I've been busy learning git.  Sorry about all the noise ;-)

The good news is that I think I've got it sussed now, and we're in good
shape to upload 2.2.4-1, which fixes our only non-wishlist bug.  Could
people download and try it?

You'll need git-core installed.  Then (for read-only access), you can
do:

git-clone http://git.debian.org/git/pkg-pciutils/pciutils.git

(see http://wiki.debian.org/AliothGit for authenticated access).

Once you have the tree pulled, you'll want to check out the debian
branch:

cd pciutils
git-checkout debian-2.2.4

Then you'll want to fetch the upstream tarball:

wget http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/utils/pciutils/pciutils-2.2.4.tar.gz

(the security-minded will want to fetch the .sign file and verify it at
this point).

mv pciutils-2.2.4.tar.gz pciutils_2.2.4.orig.tar.gz
mv pciutils pciutils-2.2.4

cd pciutils-2.2.4
dpkg-buildpackage -i.git -rfakeroot -uc -us

Let me know if you find any problems.  It'd be good to get this into the
archive soon.
