Debian repo does not support the multi digit epoch #35695
Description
Description
Summary
Debian versions can start with an epoch, which Debian policy describes as an unsigned integer. Right now our validator only accepts a single digit there, so any version like 100:2.0.1 gets rejected. That’s blocking us from re-publishing a few upstream packages.
Steps to Reproduce
- Import a Debian package whose version begins with a multi-digit epoch, e.g.
100:2.0.1. - During
ParseControlFile, the check inmodules/packages/debian/metadata.gofails becauseversionPatternallows only[0-9]:.
Expected Behavior
Versions with any valid unsigned epoch (including multi-digit values) should pass validation.
Actual Behavior
The parser throws package version is invalid, stopping packages with epochs greater than 9.
Environment
- gitea: current main
- module:
modules/packages/debian/metadata.go
