WHO-UPLOADS(1) General Commands Manual WHO-UPLOADS(1)
NAME
who-uploads - identify the uploaders of Debian source packages
SYNOPSIS
who-uploads [options] source_package ...
DESCRIPTION
who-uploads uses the Package Tracking System (PTS) to identify the up-
loaders of the three most recent versions of the given source packages.
Note that the uploaders are identified using their gpg(1) or gpg2(1)
keys; installing a recent version of the debian-keyring package should
provide most of the required keys.
Note that because the PTS uses source packages, you must give the
source package names, not the binary package names.
OPTIONS
-M, --max-uploads=N
Specify the maximum number of uploads to display for each pack-
age; the default is 3. Note that you may not see this many up-
loads if there are not this many recorded in the PTS.
--keyring keyring
Add keyring to the list of keyrings to be searched for the up-
loader's GPG key.
--no-default-keyrings
By default, who-uploads uses the three Debian keyrings
/usr/share/keyrings/debian-keyring.gpg, /usr/share/keyrings/de-
bian-nonupload.gpg, and /usr/share/keyrings/debian-maintain-
ers.gpg (although this default can be changed in the configura-
tion file, see below). Specifying this option means that the
default keyrings will not be examined. The --keyring option
overrides this one.
--date Show the date of the upload alongside the uploader's details
--nodate, --no-date
Do not show the date of the upload alongside the uploader's de-
tails. This is the default behaviour.
--no-conf, --noconf
Do not read any configuration files. This can only be used as
the first option given on the command-line.
--help, -h
Display a help message and exit successfully.
--version
Display version and copyright information and exit successfully.
CONFIGURATION VARIABLES
The two configuration files /etc/devscripts.conf and ~/.devscripts are
sourced in that order to set configuration variables. Command line op-
tions can be used to override configuration file settings. Environment
variable settings are ignored for this purpose. The currently recog-
nised variables are:
WHOUPLOADS_DATE
Show the date of the upload alongside the uploader's details.
By default, this is "no".
WHOUPLOADS_MAXUPLOADS
The maximum number of uploads to display for each package. By
default, this is 3.
WHOUPLOADS_KEYRINGS
This is a colon-separated list of the default keyrings to be
used. By default, it is the three Debian keyrings
/usr/share/keyrings/debian-keyring.gpg, /usr/share/keyrings/de-
bian-nonupload.gpg, and /usr/share/keyrings/debian-maintain-
ers.gpg.
