pkh put only spoke SFTP to the PPA queue, so a failure of the SSH
transport itself (TCP, banner exchange) failed the upload even though
dput happily pushes the same files: its plain ppa: profile goes over
the anonymous FTP queue of ppa.launchpad.net, the same destination
over another port.
Classify the SSH connection failures: Transport (the connection never
came up: resolution, TCP, banner or key exchange) degrades to that FTP
queue — the upload order (payload first, .changes last), the
reverse-order DELE cleanup of a failed upload and the per-chunk
progress reporting all mirror the SFTP path, sharing cleanup_list.
Refused failures (host key not accepted, no matching authentication)
stay errors: silently switching transport would bypass the refusal.
The FTP client is suppaftp's blocking stream, with the time bounds it
does not carry by itself: the control channel's reads and writes, the
data channel's writes and connect (through a custom passive stream
builder), and the NAT workaround for PASV replies announcing an
unroutable address. The queue endpoints (host, port) join
data/launchpad.yml next to the SFTP ones, and the FTP transport is
covered by unit tests against an in-process fake queue plus a live
control-channel handshake with the real server (ignored, network).
The chlog series selector only appeared when the changelog's current
distribution resolved to a known series; a Debian package targeting
'unstable' (or 'stable', 'testing', ...) fell through to keeping the
current series, silently, with no menu.
Resolve the changelog distribution through the suite aliases first
(unstable identifies the same series as sid, which resolves to the
Debian series list). The selector offers an aliased series as
'<suite> (<series>)' — 'unstable (sid)' — preselected, but selects
the suite name: what a changelog distribution field expects, instead
of the codename. Every other label and free-typed input selects
itself, unchanged.
Reflect the selector in the README roadmap checklist.
The command block is now the actual pkh --help output (new, lint and
prune were missing). The example workflow used pkh commit, a
subcommand that does not exist; commits go through git until
chlog/pkh commit land. The roadmap now reflects what is implemented
(pull -v, deb --mode local, lint, prune, new) and an installation
section documents the source build and its system dependencies.
The subcommand is gone from the CLI; context survives only as the
internal build backend, so there is no user-facing surface left to
track on the roadmap.
The version flags were never reachable: --backport was declared but not
read, and compute_new_version's NMU/rebuild numbering sat behind a TODO
asking for CLI wiring (the old positional-bool signature always received
false). generate_entry now takes an EntryKind selected by three mutually
exclusive flags, and is async because the backport numbering derives the
Debian release number of the target series from distro-info:
- --backport: 1.0-1 becomes 1.0-1~bpo12+1 (12 = release number of the
target series, backport suite names accepted too). Re-running on an
already-numbered version bumps the counter; series without a numeric
Debian release (sid, Ubuntu series, UNRELEASED) are rejected before
anything is written.
- --nmu: 1.0-1 becomes 1.0-1.1 (native 1.0 becomes 1.0+nmu1).
- --rebuild: 1.0-1 becomes 1.0-1build1.
An explicit --version overrides all three. compute_new_version went
from four positional bools to a private Bump enum; backport numbering
reuses increment_suffix with a '~bpoNN+' suffix. The CLI prints the
computed new version before opening the editor.
Upload built source packages over SFTP with host-key verification
(Launchpad fingerprints pinned in host_keys.yml, ask-to-accept
otherwise), Launchpad account discovery (git config lp.user), and
pre-flight checks the upload queue itself never does: changes file
discovery/validation, PPA existence via the Launchpad API, target
series validity, and debian/control Section validity (sections
bundled in distro_info.yml). Upload log prevents duplicate uploads
unless --force.
- pull: select the pocket to download the source package from
- deb: build against dependencies from a specific pocket:
- local mode: enable '{series}-{pocket}' suite on archive sources
- cross mode: include the pocket suite in required repositories
