PTS-SUBSCRIBE(1)
NAME
pts-subscribe - time-limited subscription to the PTS
SYNOPSIS
pts-subscribe [options] package pts-unsubscribe [options] package
DESCRIPTION
pts-subscribe sends a subscription request for package to the Package
Tracking System at pts@qa.debian.org, and cancels the subscription 30
days later.
If called as pts-unsubscribe, send an unsubscription request for package to the Package Tracking System.
This utility is useful if a developer has made an NMU and wants to
track the package for a limited period of time.
OPTIONS
- --until time, -u time
- When at(1) should cancel the subscription. time must be specified using at's syntax. Default is 'now + 30 days'. This option will probably require quoting!
- --forever
- Don't cancel the subscription automatically. This can also be specified as --until forever.
- --help, -h
- Display a help message and exit successfully.
- --version
- Display version and copyright information and exit successfully.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
- DEBEMAIL, EMAIL
- If one of these is set (with preference give to DEBEMAIL), then this will be used for the subscription address. If neither is set, then the email will be sent without a specified subscription address, and the email's From: line will be used to determine the sender's address. This will be determined by mail(1).
CONFIGURATION VARIABLES
The two configuration files /etc/devscripts.conf and ~/.devscripts are
sourced in that order to set configuration variables. Command line
options can be used to override configuration file settings. Environment variable settings are ignored for this purpose. The currently
recognised variables are:
- PTS_UNTIL
- Setting this is equivalent to giving a --until option.
