Well, with the last indications I've installed some dependencies I haven't installed and git-buildpackage almost works.

<br>
</span>Here I will describe how I add a new upstream release to the debian repository.<br>
<br>
- First I do not put the real git upstream in the debian package repository. (If I rememmber correctly there was some discussion about how to put the upstream repository into the debian repo but with no official consensus, the other way arround is another quetion...)<br>
<br>
- for now the simplest things to do is to clone only the debian repository (your second solution).<br>
- use uscan to download the lastest version. (already done by you nice :). A working watch file is really import for the debian infrastructure.<br>
it facilitate a lot the upstream integration :)<br>
<br>
- and then integrate this new version in the debian repository.<br>
<br>
in order to integrate the new upstream, you need at least two branches (master + upstream)<br>
<br>
so<br>
<br>
git checkout -t origin/upstream<br>
git checkout master<br>
git-import-orig --pristine-tar ../ufo-core-0.8.0.targ.gz<br>
<br>
then you should have to answer the question of the version<br>
just put 0.8.0<br>
<br>
once done you should have a new upstream/0.8.0 tag<br>
<br>
you should be on the master branch<br>
<br>
then you can start to fix the debian files.<br>
<br>
build your package with<br>
<br>
git-buildpackage<br>
<br>
if you do not want to commit you change until it is ok<br>
<br>
git-buildpckage --git-ignore-new<br>
<br>
Just tell me if it works for you.<br>
<br>
Cheers<br>
<br>
Fred<br>
