Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.18.24
Severity: minor
Dear Maintainer,
When running "dpkg-source -b /tmp/tmp7oij8gts/gcc-6_6.3.0-19" I get many
warnings like:
dpkg-source: warning: the diff modifies the following upstream files:
/tmp/tmp6pvtnsvy/gcc-6_6.3.0-19.orig/debian/FAQ.gcj
The warnings go away when I "cd /tmp/tmp7oij8gts/gcc-6_6.3.0-19 && dpkg-source
-b ."
instead, but the downside is that I then get the build-products in
/tmp/tmp7oij8gts/
rather than $OLDPWD.
<guillem> OTOH the code is supposed to be filtering ^debian/ [..]
Probably the paths just need to be stripped appropriately before feeding them
to the regex.

I can no longer reproduce this. I think this was fixed in 1.23.6, with
the fixes for properly handling building from within the source tree.
Thus closing now.
If I got this wrong, then please reopen and provide instructions on how
to reproduce it.
Thanks,
Guillem
