debexpo repository multiples issues
This issue is created to list all bugs affecting debexpo repository.
- Missing
Packagesfile when no packages have been uploaded for a distribution/architecture
This generates errors when runningapt update - No update of the repository state after deleting a package
- No
SHA256field forPackages
This prevents apt from downloading deb files in buster - Multiple entries for the
SourcesandPackagesof the same package at the same version (#15 (closed)) - No checksum for
.dscin theSources.
This preventapt sourceto download the file.
To handle with care: update of the repository upon package deletion can race condition with package importer on repository files. The solution must take that into account.
Bonus round: Create an Release and InRelease file per component/arch and sign it with mentors' key (detached and clearsign).
