I don't consider executing $__remote_* commands from a gencode-* script good style, as they will also be executed for dry runs.
This section should go to a code-local or, even better, use __file if possible.
Supporting --source -, like __file would also be nice, IMO.

also: cidst -> cdist

Well, that's an interesting and important aspect. Thanks for pointing it out.

However, I am in a bit of a pickle here:

  • Putting it into gencode-local wont' really fly here: that will return a filename (and/or create a file) that's unique locally.
  • Putting it into __file would then mean, we need to pass the value from the manifest to the gencode-remote script, which then means setting up temporary files and such, right?

Supporting --sourece - seems to be rather out of scope here: how many people will pipe a .dpkg as a string literal through here?

Typo is a nice catch, thanks.


$__remote_copy "$source_path" "$__target_host:$tempfile"

# other version should be installed

aptget="${aptget:?} -o APT::Get::allow-downgrades=true"

Moving the install command up here breaks the auto-update mechanism below (line 121ff.)

Fair point. I shall have a think about this aspect.
