This is a bug in dput-ng. It shouldn't randomly start failing to build because distro-info-data changed or is outdated, something that is expected to happen multiple times during the lifetime of a stable release. Maybe some of these tests would be better in an autopkgtest instead of during the build. That way, a regression introduced by distro-info-data would be identified automatically. There might be a bug in distro-info-data as well. But that would be a separate bug (and I don't know if that one would be RC). Thanks, Ivo
