.SH OPTIONS
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
.BR \-u \fIUPLOAD\fR, \-\-upload=\fIUPLOAD\fR
|
||||
\fBRequired\fR. Upload to \fIUPLOAD\fR with \fBdput\fR(1) (after
|
||||
confirmation).
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
.BR \-t \fIDEST\fR, \-\-to=\fIDEST\fR
|
||||
\fBRequired\fR. Backport the package to the specified Ubuntu
|
||||
release. This option may be specified multiple times, but must be
|
||||
specified at least once.
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
.BR \-f \fISOURCE\fR, \-\-from=\fISOURCE\fR
|
||||
Backport the package from the specified Ubuntu release. If neither
|
||||
this option nor \fB\-\-version\fR are specified, then
|
||||
\fBbackportpackage\fR defaults to the current Ubuntu development
|
||||
release.
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
.BR \-v \fIVERSION\fR, \-\-version=\fIVERSION\fR
|
||||
If the \fB\-\-from\fR option is specified, then \fBbackportpackage\fR
|
||||
verifies that the current version of \fIsource package\fR in
|
||||
\fISOURCE\fR is the same as \fIVERSION\fR. Otherwise,
|
||||
\fBbackportpackage\fR finds version \fIVERSION\fR of \fIsource
|
||||
package\fR, regardless of the release in which it was published (or if
|
||||
that version is still current).
|
||||
.TP
|
||||
.BR \-l \fIINSTANCE\fR, \-\-launchpad=\fIINSTANCE\fR
|
||||
Use the specified instance of Launchpad (e.g. "staging"), instead of
|
||||
the default of "production".
|
||||
.SH DESCRIPTION

\fIbackportpackage\fR fetches a package from one Ubuntu release and

\fBbackportpackage\fR fetches a package from one Ubuntu release and
|

creates a no-change backport of that package to a previous release,

uploading the resulting backport for testing.

The backported package is fetched and built in a temporary directory

in \fB/tmp\fR, which is removed once the script finishes running.
