Launchpad itself

Source/binary (i.e. mixed) uploads are not allowed.

Asked by Thomas Boxley

I'm trying to upload a deb file to my Launchpad PPA, and I've fixed all of the rejected errors I've gotten, but what about "Rejected: Source/binary (i.e. mixed) uploads are not allowed. "? I am completely lost as to what I should do.

This has been solved.

I needed to build the package with debuild -S.

Just wanted to thank you bro, after 7 years, I faced the same problem and your "-S" saved my day.

Another helpful tip if using gbp-buildpackage is to use:

    gbp buildpackage --git-builder='debuild -i -I -S'

Yeah... This makes sense..
However, is it possible to upload binary instead of source only?
If so, how to do that?
