Since today's upgrade to 2.10.17 debchange inserts an empty line
before the new " * " entry. From looking through the code this seems
related to the fix for #452806, i.e. the changed reading of the
changelog; if I chomp $CHANGES the empty lines disappear again:
# Open in anticipation....
unless ($opt_create) {
open S, $changelog_path or fatal "Cannot open existing $changelog_path:
$!";
# Read the first stanza from the changelog file
# We do this directly rather than reusing $changelog{'Changes'}
# so that we have the verbatim changes rather than a (albeit very
# slightly) reformatted version. See Debian bug #452806
while(<S>) {
last if /^ --/;
$CHANGES .= $_;
}
chomp $CHANGES;
# Reset file pointer
seek(S, 0, 0);
}
I'm not sure if this affects other parts but it least it works for
(explicit or implicit $opt_a and for dch $TEXT).
Cheers,
gregor, now going back to actually using dch again :)
