Package: lintian Version: 2.5.3 Severity: wishlist I build my package with sbuild and it writes the Distribution field in the .changes according to the parameter given on the command line.
I recently had the case that I have left UNRELEASED in debian/changelog and built my package with sbuild and lintian did not warn me. I'm not sure what the proper solution is. Ideally it would detect the mismatch beween the .changes and the changelog in the source package but I guess it's not easy. -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (500, 'stable-updates'), (500, 'proposed-updates'), (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (500, 'stable'), (150, 'experimental') Architecture: i386 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.0.0-2-amd64 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=fr_FR.utf8, LC_CTYPE=fr_FR.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Versions of packages lintian depends on: ii binutils 2.21.90.20111025-1 ii bzip2 1.0.5-7 ii diffstat 1.54-1 ii file 5.09-2 ii gettext 0.18.1.1-5 ii intltool-debian 0.35.0+20060710.1 ii libapt-pkg-perl 0.1.25 ii libclass-accessor-perl 0.34-1 ii libdpkg-perl 1.16.2~49.gbp8cc36f ii libemail-valid-perl 0.185-1 ii libipc-run-perl 0.90-1 ii libparse-debianchangelog-perl 1.2.0-1 ii libtimedate-perl 1.2000-1 ii liburi-perl 1.59-1 ii locales 2.13-21 ii locales-all [locales] 2.13-21 ii man-db 2.6.0.2-2 ii patchutils 0.3.2-1 ii perl [libdigest-sha-perl] 5.12.4-6 ii unzip 6.0-5 lintian recommends no packages.
