I agree that it would be preferable if simply running "dch" always dtrt. To that end, we've just made a change which means that running dch on an UNRELEASED changelog will skip auto-NMU detection if you're using the "changelog" release heuristic (which you'd need to be in order for dch to automatically add new entries to an UNRELEASED stanza anyway). Hopefully that goes some way to alleviating your concerns. Adam -- To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
