• Updated proposal for improving the FTP NEW process

    From Chris Lamb@21:1/5 to All on Sun Mar 11 18:20:01 2018
    Hi Lars,

    I'm happy that the ftp masters are doing their job in the best way
    they can. This includes any re-reviews of packages already in the
    archive, at whatever points they choose, be that when there's a new
    binary package from an old source package, randomly chosen packages,
    or targeting packages whose SHA3 ends in 42.

    $ cd /srv/ftp-master.debian.org/queue/new

    $ sha384sum *.changes | fgrep '42 ' d317231d0cc6ed33e2b7436a1416a3edf94dd85dc12fd108eb2a813bfe0d81bbf6b16ca149dcfe6fdeb866b8a3d5f742 node-split-string_4.0.0-1_amd64.changes

    $ dak process-new node-split-string_4.0.0-1_amd64.changes
    + cd /srv/ftp-master.debian.org/tmp/daks3W5PW
    + dpkg-source -x node-split-string_4.0.0-1.dsc
    […]
    Add overrides, Edit overrides, Check, Manual reject, Note edit, Prod, [S]kip, Quit ?a
    PENDING ACCEPT


    Regards,

    That's not SHA3, SHA384 is an algorithm from the SHA2 family (yes that's possibly confusing).

    If you want SHA3, you need to install libdigest-sha3-perl, which
    includes a sha3sum script in /usr/bin.
