Creation of a new Debian changelog:
dch --create --package retroshare --newversion 0.6.4-1
Note: dch reads email in $DEBMAIL or $USER@$HOSTNAME, so it should be made correct in debian/changlog
If the email does not match the email in mentors, the package will be rejected.
dget command to retrieve source package:
dget -u https://launchpad.net/~retroshare/+archive/ubuntu/stable/+files/retroshare_0.6.4-1.20180313.0e6d27ad~xenial.dsc
(-u means don't check PGP signature)
When ready:
* updload the package in a place that can be used to dget the package on mentors.debian.net.
dput mentors retroshare_0.6.4-1_source.changes

lintian -EI --pedantic --profile debian retroshare_0.6.4-1_source.changes
