#201 F-R doesn't unpack upstream sources
Closed: Invalid None Opened 11 years ago by mizdebsk.

Previous versions of F-R used to unpack upstream tarballs into upstream-unpacked directory. Version seems not to do so. This is a regression -- my scripts/plugins rely on sources being unpacked by F-R.

Version of F-R: 0.4.0

Example:
{{{
$ find upstream*
upstream
upstream/jnr-jnr-enxio-0.3-0-gd320a2c.tar.gz
upstream-unpacked
}}}

Note that upstream-unpacked is empty.


This is actually as it always have been and is also documented in the manpage (in the review directory section). Also in the wiki (https://fedorahosted.org/FedoraReview/wiki/UsageScenarios) you can find a shortcut to unpack the sources using the review-env.sh file.

mizdebsk: are you OK with closing this bug?

I'm pretty sure that former released version(s) used to unpack sources by default, even if this feature wasn't documented.

I am fine with closing this bug.

They are unpacked in some situations e. g., when there's a need to make a diff -r because the upstream checksum don't match. But this is, as stated in the manpage, more or less random.

Closing.
