hi,<br><br>i have got myself a package from debian which I require for a project.<br>it has been built without change from the debian source and I produced a package and have been testing it on my machine.<br><br>The package building gave me required .changes, .dsc, .orig.tar.gz and .diff.gz files.<br>
<br>the original files were obtained directly from debian with:<br>dget -x <a href="http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libl/liblo/liblo_0.23-2.2.dsc" target="_blank">http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/libl/liblo/liblo_0.23-2.2.dsc</a><br>
<br>however, when I push the changes file to the extras assistant, it tells me:<br><br>File upload error. You didn't upload a valid .changes file.
<br><br>I have attached the changes file here, could someone tell me whats wrong with it, or where I went wrong.<br><br>thanks,<br><br>Gary (lcuk on #maemo)<br><br><br><br>
