Okay so I've been walking down the rocky road of building an app from scratch, getting processed by the auto-builder and up into extras for a while now... and I've resolved most of my problems, but hit one big hitch: the app never actually shows up in extras-devel/never gets moved there for some reason...

I've written the package from scratch, so maybe I've missed something, but I package it up using dpkg-buildpackage on my SDK. This generates the .changes, .tar.gz source, and .dsc files. I upload those using the Extras-assistant, which goes through and says "okay, move to the build queue". I hit that to move the files into the build queue for Diablo, and wait a little bit. Eventually an email shows up telling me that everything's built OK and that it will be moved to extras-devel soon... and then, 4 days later, still no signs of it!

The results of the build queue are in the log files for autobuilder, here:
https://garage.maemo.org/builder/dia...ipclock_0.9.4/

and I've been keeping a close eye on what I believe is the raw extras-devel repo:
http://repository.maemo.org/extras-d...e/f/flipclock/

There's my old builds from when it was a python app, but nothing for any of the 0.9.x versions that I've uploaded to autobuilder... anyone have any ideas at all, I'm completely baffled...

If you need want to see the packaging rules or anything I can post those up here as well...

Oh, and as a bizarre twist... I also uploaded to Fremantle build queue, and after I got the email saying it had built ok I can see that package now in the "Fremantle packaging interface" thing... but no signs at all in the Diablo extras-promoter or anywhere else...

Any and all suggestions/assistance greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
