Control: reassign -1 dgit 14.8 Control: retitle -1 tag2upload does not remove not needed NEWS file
Hey, thanks for your analysis. IMO the MR look fine. > Now coming to the lintian warning: this is because at some point changelogs > started to get trimmed. This was set to the date buster was released > (2019-07-06). I see. That part I havn't checked, because I wansn't aware, that the changelog is timmed. And I additionally understand, that I simple remove the NEWS anyways, because Debian does not support this big jumps anyways. One explanation why I see this lintinan warning: I switched to tag2upload for torsocks for 2.5.0-4 and -5. With the input if Nilesh I understood, that the NEWS file was not shipped in Trixie. I didn't touched the NEWS files for years and just used dkpg-buildpackage -S -d (on a sid system) to create the files to upload for all versions < 2.5.0-4. so a normal dpkg-buildpackage run is able to process this correctly. Form my point of view it looks like the tag2upload system do create different tarballs than I created locally. I attached on email that I got from the tag2upload system.
