Upload to Debusine using dput-ng

Debusine includes support for uploading packages using dput-ng.

Initial setup

You must have at least debusine-client version 0.10.0, and you must have permission to upload to the Debian archive.

Follow Set up debusine-client to configure the Debusine client for the appropriate Debusine server. The dput-ng integration only supports debusine.debian.net out of the box, although you can configure it to use a different server.

Upload a package

First, construct the source package that you want to upload (out of scope of this document), targeting either unstable or experimental. You can then upload it as follows:

$ dput debusine.debian.net foo_1.0_source.changes
Uploading dput-ng using debusine to debusine.debian.net (host: debusine.debian.net; directory: /)
running debusine-check-workflow: check debusine workflow for distribution
running checksum: verify checksums before uploading
running suite-mismatch: check the target distribution for common errors
running gpg: check GnuPG signatures before the upload
Not checking GPG signature due to allow_unsigned_uploads being set.
Uploading foo_1.0.dsc
Uploading foo_1.0.tar.xz
Uploading foo_1.0_source.changes
Created artifact: https://debusine.debian.net/debian/developers/artifact/2/
running debusine-create-workflow: create a debusine workflow
Created workflow: https://debusine.debian.net/debian/developers/work-request/1/

This does not yet set up email notifications, so open the link to the created workflow in a web browser. When all QA has passed, or when you have reviewed any failures and have decided that they can be ignored, go to the “Wait for signature on upload” work request and run the command shown there to sign the upload. Your package should then be uploaded to the Debian archive.

Further configuration

There are various options that you can use if the default behaviour does not suit your needs.
