dput — Debian package upload toolkit
History
=======
Christian Kurz writes:
`dput` has been developed because `dupload`, the only tool for
doing uploads, has quite a few open bug reports and the code is in
my opinion not very clean.
So I decided to start again and create a new tool for uploading
packages into debian. This tool is `dput`, which will include more
features and be (hopefully) bug free. It is written in Python,
since the author believes that Python is a very good language.
Features
========
The features include:
* Test of the GnuPG signature on the source control file (``*.dsc``).
* Verification of the checksums in the source control file.
* Support for MD5 and SHA checksums.
* Check for unnecessary or missing tarballs.
* Running Lintian before putting the package into the archive.
* Running Dinstall after the package is in the archive and making sure that
the package will be put on the correct server.
* Running user-defined commands before and after an upload.
A lot of the tests can be run without really putting the package
into the archive.
Encryption
==========
If you are still using PGP instead of GnuPG, please consider switching
to GnuPG instead. You can find a “how to” document about “Replacing
PGP 2.x with GnuPG” at: ``_.
