1 # PTS now sports DEHS information
3 During the last week I've started again doing some
4 [PTS](http://packages.qa.debian.org) hacking. Mostly it has been bug triaging
5 and squashing ... I'll probably blog a summary of that sooner or later. In the
6 meantime however an interesting mini-announcement is due: the PTS is now
7 integrated with [DEHS](http://dehs.alioth.debian.org) to help maintainers in
8 knowing where a newer upstream version of their packages is available.
10 The integration is twofold:
12 1. if you are subscribed (via the PTS mail interface) to the "summary" keyword
13 for a given package you will be notified of the availability of newer
14 upstream versions. Kudos to Raphael Geissert for the work on the DEHS side of
17 2. in the PTS page related to a given source package you can now see a TODO item
18 about the need to package a newer upstream version and a problem item if the
19 last uscan attempt on your package failed
21 There is an entry about that in the forthcoming
22 [DeveloperNews](http://wiki.debian.org/DeveloperNews), it will eventually flow
23 to [d-d-a](http://lists.debian.org/debian-devel-announce).
