I believe I found the reason for all the spelling errors in the changelog. Though I don't know how to fix it. The changelog in the 2.8 branch in GitHub, has 2326 lines. The changelog that is built with the buildbot has 9085 lines. The first entry is signed with -- LinuxCNC Buildmaster <buildmas...@buildbot.linuxcnc.org> and adds an incredible 6700 lines to the changelog. I believe these are the lines with the spelling error which we can't find.
I checked the package linuxcnc-uspace_2.8.0~pre1.6199.g9bdae7cf8_amd64.deb found here: http://buildbot.linuxcnc.org/dists/buster/2.8-rtpreempt/binary-amd64/ Also. The package from master-branch has 5100 lines and 2700 of those is also signed with LinuxCNC Buildmaster Håvard søn. 16. aug. 2020 kl. 18:23 skrev Håvard Flaget Aasen <havard.flaget.aa...@gmail.com>: > > søn. 16. aug. 2020 kl. 17:47 skrev andy pugh <bodge...@gmail.com>: > > > > Lintian is reporting hundreds of spelling errors in the changelog. > > > > But I can't find any of them in the actual changelog text file. > > > > Does anyone know which file it is actually looking in?
