Package: git-buildpackage Version: 0.6.0~git20120404 Severity: normal Tags: l10n
Dear Maintainer,
git-buildpackage reports that a git repository is modified in an
incorrect way -
if using a localized system and git-buildpackage on a repository which
has no un-commited changes, it still reports as if it has uncommited
changes, and refuses to build. To come around this problem I can simply
use
LANG=C git-buildpackage
My guess is that it compares output with english strings to determine
if we are on a modified git repository, which of course fails with a
localized git / git-buildpackage.
git recently has this change (in 1:1.7.10-1)
* debian/control: package git: Suggests: gettext-base for translated
output in shell scripts.
which I believe is the source of the problem.
