I've had similar situations but IMHO --svn-prebuild is the wrong place for a call to dch. debian/changelog should be committed to SVN beforehand, if necessary using a script instead of an alias. It's a misuse of prebuild to make changes to the changelog itself - just as it would be to make changes to debian/control or add a patch as part of prebuild. --svn-prebuild should not be used in ways which break existing release goals (like building twice in a row without changes). I'm tempted to close this as "not a bug". -- Neil Williams ============= http://www.linux.codehelp.co.uk/
