SYNCPACKAGE(1) General Commands Manual SYNCPACKAGE(1)NAME
syncpackage - copy source packages from Debian to Ubuntu
SYNOPSIS
syncpackage [options] <.dsc URL/path or package name>
DESCRIPTION
syncpackage causes a source package to be copied from Debian to Ubuntu.
syncpackage allows you to upload files with the same checksums of the Debian ones, as the common script used by Ubuntu archive administra-
tors does, this way you can preserve source files integrity between the two distributions.
syncpackage will detect source tarballs with mismatching checksums, and can perform fake syncs.
WARNING
The use of syncpackage --no-lp, which generates a changes file to be directly uploaded to the Ubuntu primary archive or a PPA, is discour-
aged by the Ubuntu Archive Administrators, as it introduces an unnecessary window for error. This only exists for backward compatibility,
for unusual corner cases (such as fakesyncs), and for uploads to archives other than the Ubuntu primary archive. Omitting this option will
cause Launchpad to perform the sync request directly, which is the preferred method for uploads to the Ubuntu primary archive.
OPTIONS -h, --help
Show help message and exit
-d DIST, --distribution=DIST
Debian distribution to sync from. Default is testing during LTS cycles, and unstable otherwise.
-r RELEASE, --release=RELEASE
Specify target Ubuntu release. Default: current development release.
-V DEBVERSION, --debian-version=DEBVERSION
Specify the version to sync from.
-c COMPONENT, --component=COMPONENT
Specify the component to sync from.
-b BUG, --bug=BUG
Mark a Launchpad bug as being fixed by this upload.
-s USERNAME, --sponsor=USERNAME
Sponsor the sync for USERNAME (a Launchpad username).
-v, --verbose
Display more progress information.
-F, --fakesync
Perform a fakesync, to work around a tarball mismatch between Debian and Ubuntu. This option ignores blacklisting, and performs a
local sync. It implies --no-lp, and will leave a signed .changes file for you to upload.
-f, --force
Force sync over the top of Ubuntu changes.
--no-conf
Do not read any configuration files, or configuration from environment variables.
-l INSTANCE, --lpinstance=INSTANCE
Launchpad instance to connect to (default: production).
--simulate
Show what would be done, but don't actually do it.
LOCAL SYNC PREPARATION OPTIONS
Options that only apply when using --no-lp:
--no-lp
Construct sync locally, rather than letting Launchpad copy the package directly. It will leave a signed .changes file for you to
upload. See the WARNING above.
-n UPLOADER_NAME, --uploader-name=UPLOADER_NAME
Use UPLOADER_NAME as the name of the maintainer for this upload instead of evaluating DEBFULLNAME and UBUMAIL. This option may only
be used in --no-lp mode.
-e UPLOADER_EMAIL, --uploader-email=UPLOADER_EMAIL
Use UPLOADER_EMAIL as the email address of the maintainer for this upload instead of evaluating DEBEMAIL and UBUMAIL. This option
may only be used in --no-lp mode.
-k KEYID, --key=KEYID
Specify the key ID to be used for signing.
--dont-sign
Do not sign the upload.
-d DEBIAN_MIRROR, --debian-mirror=DEBIAN_MIRROR
Use the specified mirror. Should be in the form http://ftp.debian.org/debian. If the package isn't found on this mirror, syncpack-
age will fall back to the default mirror.
-s UBUNTU_MIRROR, --debsec-mirror=UBUNTU_MIRROR
Use the specified Debian security mirror. Should be in the form http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu. If the package isn't found on
this mirror, syncpackage will fall back to the default mirror.
ENVIRONMENT
DEBFULLNAME, DEBEMAIL, UBUMAIL
Used to determine the uploader (if not supplied as options). See ubuntu-dev-tools(5) for details.
All of the CONFIGURATION VARIABLES below are also supported as environment variables. Variables in the environment take precedence to
those in configuration files.
CONFIGURATION VARIABLES
The following variables can be set in the environment or in ubuntu-dev-tools(5) configuration files. In each case, the script-specific
variable takes precedence over the package-wide variable.
SYNCPACKAGE_DEBIAN_MIRROR, UBUNTUTOOLS_DEBIAN_MIRROR
The default value for --debian-mirror.
SYNCPACKAGE_UBUNTU_MIRROR, UBUNTUTOOLS_DEBSEC_MIRROR
The default value for --ubuntu-mirror.
SYNCPACKAGE_KEYID, UBUNTUTOOLS_KEYID
The default value for --key.
