NAME
revu-report - Debian packages reviewing tool
SYNOPSIS
revu-report [ --help | -h ] [ upstream tarball [ dsc file ] ]
DESCRIPTION
Debian packages reviewing tool.
revu-report is a reviewing tool from the revu-tools package, aimed to
helping reviewers of Debian packages in their task. revu-report uses
revu-build and revu-orig to generate a full report in the current folder.
Among the informations revu-report gives are:
o Whether the package is a Debian-native ;
o Whether the package contains a usable debian/watch file ;
- o Whether new versions of the program are available, using the de
- bian/watch file with uscan ;
- o Whether the md5 sums of the upstream tarball and the orig.tar.gz are
- identical, and whether this is normal or not ;
- o Whether there is a diff between the extracted upstream tarball and
- orig.tar.gz.
- o Whether the package fails to build from source in pbuilder ;
- o Whether lintian and linda are happy with this package ;
- o Whether running debuild -S -sa on this package generates files in the
- diff outside of debian/.
OPTIONS
- --help | -h
- Show informations about the program and the usage.
- upstream tarball
- Indicate what file to use as upstream tarball. This is optional since revu-report can download the upstream tarball using debian/watch and/or detect its presence automatically in the folder.
- dsc file
- Indicate what dsc file to use. This is optional since revu-report can detect the dsc file automatically in the folder. Note that this argument can only be given if the tarball was given as first one.
