positional arguments:

ENDPOINT

HTTP target endpoint: Twisted-style Network Client Endpoint

See: https://twistedmatrix.com/documents/current/core/howto/endpoints.html#clients

Notation Examples::

'tcp:host=localhost:port=8066': Connect to localhost, unencrypted.

'tls:host=localhost:port=8066': Connect to localhost, encrypted. 'http://localhost:8066' : Extra URL-style syntax (prefer twisted-style in saved configs, though). 'localhost:8066' : Compatibility host:port syntax (don't use -- might eventually go away).

SOURCE

Pattern or DSC URL

DISTRIBUTION

distribution to portext to

options:

-h, --help

show this help message and exit

--version

show program's version number and exit

-l {CRITICAL,ERROR,WARNING,INFO,DEBUG}, --log-level {CRITICAL,ERROR,WARNING,INFO,DEBUG}

set log level (DEBUG will enable exception tracebacks and python warnings) (default: INFO)

-v, --verbose

DEPRECATED (use --log-level): increase log level. Give twice for max logs (default: 0)

-q, --quiet

DEPRECATED (use --log-level): decrease log level. Give twice for min logs (default: 0)

-M MIRROR, --mirror MIRROR

Debian mirror to use (default: http://localhost:3142/debian/)

-U, --upload

Non-dry run: Actually upload packages (default: False)

EXPERIMENTAL: Portext a source package including all dependencies.

Intended to help porting larger 'projects' (f.e. desktop environments) with a lot of source packages and inter-package build dependencies.

This still has a lot of rough edges. Use with care.

This tool uses the apt cache of the system it is run on. This needs to be set up pior to running. For example:

1. Run this in on system you want to PORT TO (f.e..: buster, 'deb' apt lines for buster). 2. Add 'deb-src' apt lines for the system you want to PORT FROM (f.e.: bullseye, 'deb-src' apt lines for bullseye). 3. sudo apt-get update 4. mini-buildd-super-portext -v http://admin@localhost:8066 http://localhost:3142/debian//pool/main/k/kguiaddons/kguiaddons_5.70.0-2.dsc buster-test-unstable

Per default, this will just print a list of DSC URLs it would portext (in this order). Use --upload to actually run 'the portexts'.
