4 \- package upload tool for Debian
9 \fBpackage.changes\fR ...
11 This is a tool for uploading Debian packages into the archive. You may specify
12 to which host it should upload the file by passing it an
14 argument. If omitted, dput uses the host specified by
16 (or, historically \fIdefault_host_non-us\fR) configuration option.
17 Also you have to pass the program one or more name of
19 files and then they will be sequentially uploaded.
21 This program will then upload the package for you into the archive, using a
22 selected upload method. Currently dput supports ftp, scp, rsync, http,
24 method scripts have been split from the main script so it is easy to add
25 new methods. Look in /usr/share/dput/ for examples.
27 Should something go wrong with your upload to destinations using the
28 Debian upload queue daemon (e.g. ftp-master), you can remove files from
29 the upload queue with \fBdcut\fP(1).
33 \- define a config file to use.
37 \- activate debugging mode, helpful if bugs occur.
41 \- do a dry run of dinstall after the upload.
45 \- force an upload of an already uploaded package.
49 \- print help information and exit.
53 \- print the lists of hosts that dput knows about.
57 \- run lintian before the upload.
61 \- do not write a .upload log file after uploading.
65 \- check only the package and do not upload.
69 \- print the configuration that dput is using.
73 \- use passive ftp instead of active. Note that passive ftp is the default
74 unless specified otherwise in the configuration file.
78 \- simulate an upload only.
82 \- don't check GnuPG signature on the changes file.
86 \- Upload to a DELAYED queue, rather than the usual Incoming. This
87 takes an argument from 0 to 15. Note that a delay of 0 is different
92 \- print version information and exit.
95 .BR \-\-check\-version
96 \- check if the user has already installed and tested the package before
97 putting it into the archive.
101 This program doesn't depend on any environment variables. But if the variable
102 USER is set, it will be used.
105 This program is distributed under the terms of the GPL.
