NAME

syncpackage - helper to prepare .changes file to upload synced packages

SYNOPSIS

syncpackage [options] <.dsc URL/path or package name>

DESCRIPTION

syncpackage generates a changes file to be directly uploaded to Ubuntu primary archive or PPA starting from a pristine Debian package.

syncpackage allows you to upload files with the same checksums of the Debian ones, as the common script used by Ubuntu archive administrators does, this way you can preserve source files integrity between the two distributions.

syncpackage will detect source tarballs with mismatching checksums and will automatically create fake syncs instead.
