Package: devscripts
Version: 2.11.8
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

please fix dch, there are several things wrong with it now:

• it defaults to appending
• it no longer fixes the clock when using -a
• with -i the distribution defaults to UNRELEASED

Some of them can apparently be changed with configuration
files, but not with e.g. environment settings, and deploying
them is a PITA. The last item may actually break binNMU scripts.
So please fix dch and let it behave like before.

Thanks,
//mirabilos
