This repository contains scripts which simplify the edition of changelogs for package maintainers. After running these scripts, only minimal edition is required.
rpm2deb-changelog is a Perl script which transforms an RPM *.changes file
into a Debian changelog. Minor editing may be required to have a consistent
Debian changelog (versions, urgencies, ...). The aim of this script is
to simplify the life of a maintainer, who packages for both RPM-based distros
and Debian-based distros.
rpm2deb-change is a Bash script which transforms the last RPM change
in an RPM *.changes file into a Debian change in a Debian changelog. The aim of
this script is to simplify the life of a maintainer, who packages for both
RPM-based distros and Debian-based distros.
The vc-debian tool adds a new changes entry to a SUSE *.changes file.
The -m option can be used to directly specify the entry, if it is
not given an editor is started to interactively enter the new changes
entry. If a commentfile is given, its content is used as template
for the new entry instead of an empty entry, whereas the -e option
suppresses the creation of an empty entry.
This version is modified so that the debian changelog is also modified
when osc vc is used in a package with a debian.changelog file.
The scripts and the man pages were written by Pascal COMBES pascom@orange.fr
