Debian problem assigned to the obvious maintainer.

tap2deb hasn't been touched in a long time. moshez, either fix this, or find a
maintainer, or it's not going to be in Twisted 2.0 (it could have a separate
home apart from Twisted, of course).

The problem is you didn't pass the maintainer argument. I updated tap2deb to
require  it and to document the format. Leaving as bug since it should probably
enforce the correct format as well.

OK, I'm not sure what's going on here: Trying exactly what the instructions say, I get:

moshez@ceylon:~/src/twisted/Twisted$ ./bin/tap2deb -t telnet.tap
./bin/tap2deb: maintainer must be specified.

Trying the obvious thing:

moshez@ceylon:~/src/twisted/Twisted$ ./bin/tap2deb -t telnet.tap -m 'Moshe Zadka
 <moshez@divmod.com>' -u
dpkg-buildpackage: source package is twisted-telnet

Whole mess of warnings, yes, and then:

dpkg-buildpackage: full upload; Debian-native package (full source is included)
moshez@ceylon:~/src/twisted/Twisted$

Can anyone give reliable repro instructions which actually work?

  • cc changed from acapnotic, itamarst, moshez to acapnotic, itamarst, moshez, thijs
  • launchpad_bug deleted
  • branch deleted
  • author deleted

Close it when it can't be reproduced, especially when the reporter can't provide more info?
