NAME
dpt-repack -- repackaging helper
SYNOPSIS
dpt repack --upstream-version version downloaded file"
DESCRIPTION
dpt repack helps creating repackaged tarballs, suitable for feeding dpkg-source(1). Work is commenced in three stages: • dpt repack unpacks the provided upstream tarball. • debian/repack.local is sourced to remove unsuitable content. • dpt repack packs the sources again, under a suitable file name in the form "package_ver.orig.tar.gz" (suffix depending on initial compression). dpt repack invokes debian/repack.local in an environment where rm and mv are replaced with functions that reflect the operations in the MANIFEST file, if present.
