Package: pbuilder
Followup-For: Bug #683848
Hi,
the patch lacks the "binary-only=yes" suffix in the changelog.
Also I think adding -m\"$BINNMU_MAINTAINER\" to DEBBUILDOPTS is wrong -
-e\"$BINNMU_MAINTAINER\" should be sufficient:
diff -Nru pbuilder-0.215+nmu3+0anbe0/pbuilder-modules
pbuilder-0.215+nmu3+0anbe1/pbuilder-modules

That said, can't you use dch to generate the binary changelog?
This would simplify the changelog generation a lot ...
$CHROOTEXEC dch --bin-nmu -c $PATHTOCHANGELOG -D $DISTRIBUTION \
"$MESSAGE"
I have no idea how to pass a binnmu number != 1 to dch.
Also you cannot pass the maintainer as a command line option - need
environment variables instead, so maybe
$CHROOTEXEC env DEBEMAIL=$DEBEMAIL DEBFULLNAME="$DEBFULLNAME" dch ...
which makes the --bin-nmu-maintainer option moot because I have to set
it to --bin-nmu-maintainer "$DEBFULLNAME <$DEBEMAIL>" anyway, so
pbuilder could just use the same variables as dch ...
I find the binnmu uploader = last uploader fallback not that useful ...
(experiences from preparing my very first binNMU (for a package not
uploaded by me before))
