Package: dpkg-dev Version: 1.15.8.5 Severity: minor File: /usr/bin/dpkg-source
Just create th debian/source/format file with an empty line, and you get: dpkg-buildpackage: host architecture amd64 dpkg-source --before-build apt-cacher-ng-0.5.7 Use of uninitialized value $build_format in scalar chomp at /usr/bin/dpkg-source line 311. Use of uninitialized value $format in pattern match (m//) at /usr/share/perl5/Dpkg/Source/Package.pm line 169. Use of uninitialized value $_[0] in sprintf at /usr/share/perl5/Dpkg/ErrorHandling.pm line 48. dpkg-source: error: invalid Format field `' Now this message is misleading, because there is NO format field (ask grep ;-) ). It should tell you where to look for this "Format field".
