Debian Support

This suggests pulp_deb is losing the following fields: Multi-Arch, Original-Maintainer, Size, Task, Description-md5

I will need to investigate.

If you need it, I can send our repository / remote / publication / distribution configuration.

The options for the remote are generally useful.

The only other thing beyond that that might be of interest is what combination of "structured" and/or "simple" mode you used for the APT publisher. (This is probably irrelevant to this particular issue but can't hurt either.)

There is the remote option :

   {
        "architectures": "amd64",
        "ca_cert": null,
        "client_cert": null,
        "client_key": null,
        "components": "main restricted",
        "connect_timeout": null,
        "distributions": "bionic bionic-security xenial xenial-security focal focal-security",
        "download_concurrency": 20,
        "gpgkey": null,
        "ignore_missing_package_indices": false,
        "name": "ubuntu",
        "password": null,
        "policy": "on_demand",
        "proxy_url": null,
        "pulp_created": "2021-02-09T11:21:22.167056Z",
        "pulp_href": "/pulp/api/v3/remotes/deb/apt/b6c2576e-c050-4ac1-8250-74178bacfd2c/",
        "pulp_last_updated": "2021-02-10T07:29:19.060281Z",
        "sock_connect_timeout": null,
        "sock_read_timeout": null,
        "sync_installer": false,
        "sync_sources": false,
        "sync_udebs": false,
        "tls_validation": true,
        "total_timeout": null,
        "url": "http://archive.ubuntu.com/ubuntu/",
        "username": null
    },

The publication is in structured mode. I also tried with simple and we've got same behavior.

Hello,

Thank's for the fix on Size field. I updated to pulp_deb 15 but i still got the issue.

I checked and the Description-md5 filed is still missing from Release file.

Description-md5 is a field within Packages files not Release files, but I am guessing that was just a slip of the tongue.

I have re-tested, and for upstream repositories containing Description-md5 fields in their package indices (Packages files), I am getting the Description-md5 field in the indices published by pulp_deb. Is it possible the repo you are syncing, does not contain the field? It all seems to be working as expected for me.
