NAME

       who-uploads - identify the uploaders of Debian source packages

SYNOPSIS

       who-uploads [options] source_package [...]

DESCRIPTION

       who-uploads  uses  the  Package  Tracking  System (PTS) to identify the
       uploaders of the  three  most  recent  versions  of  the  given  source
       packages.   Note  that  the uploaders are identified using their gpg(1)
       keys; installing a recent version of the debian-keyring package  should
       provide most of the required keys.

       Note  that  because  the  PTS  uses  source packages, you must give the
       source package names, not the binary package names.

OPTIONS

       -M, --max-uploads=N
              Specify the maximum  number  of  uploads  to  display  for  each
              package;  the default is 3.  Note that you may not see this many
              uploads if there are not this many recorded in the PTS.

       --keyring keyring
              Add keyring to the list of  keyrings  to  be  searched  for  the
              uploader's GPG key.

       --no-default-keyrings
              By   default,   who-uploads   uses  the  three  Debian  keyrings
              /usr/share/keyrings/debian-keyring.{gpg,pgp}                 and
              /usr/share/keyrings/debian-maintainers.gpg     (although    this
              default can be changed in the configuration  file,  see  below).
              Specifying  this option means that the default keyrings will not
              be examined.  The --keyring option overrides this one.

       --date Show the date of the upload alongside the uploader's details

       --nodate, --no-date
              Do not show the date of  the  upload  alongside  the  uploader's
              details.  This is the default behaviour.

       --no-conf, --noconf
              Do  not  read any configuration files.  This can only be used as
              the first option given on the command-line.

       --help, -h
              Display a help message and exit successfully.

       --version
              Display version and copyright information and exit successfully.

CONFIGURATION VARIABLES

       The  two configuration files /etc/devscripts.conf and ~/.devscripts are
       sourced in that order to set  configuration  variables.   Command  line
       options   can   be   used  to  override  configuration  file  settings.
       Environment variable  settings  are  ignored  for  this  purpose.   The
       currently recognised variables are:

       WHOUPLOADS_DATE
              Show  the  date  of the upload alongside the uploader's details.
              By default, this is "no".

       WHOUPLOADS_MAXUPLOADS
              The maximum number of uploads to display for each  package.   By
              default, this is 3.

       WHOUPLOADS_KEYRINGS
              This  is  a  colon-separated  list of the default keyrings to be
              used.   By  default,   it   is   the   three   Debian   keyrings
              /usr/share/keyrings/debian-keyring.{gpg,pgp}                 and
              /usr/share/keyrings/debian-maintainers.gpg.
