Package: devscripts
Version: 2.10.50
Severity: normal
I'm trying to cross-build aptitude and part of the process uses 'dcmd'
to parse the .changes file. However, the .changes file created by
building aptitude (natively or cross) is not being parsed by dcmd.
The actual changes file at test is the one already in the PTS:
http://packages.qa.debian.org/a/aptitude/news/20081120T050204Z.html
Copy and paste that text into a test.changes file (removing the final
Accepted comments) and dcmd fails:
$ dcmd ls test.changes
/usr/bin/dcmd: line 54: [: too many arguments
/usr/bin/dcmd: line 54: [: too many arguments

ls: cannot access admin: No such file or directory
ls: cannot access -: No such file or directory
Now the rest of the messages are expected (unless run in the appropriate
directory where the .debs can be found etc.) but these errors are specific
to this failure.
The problem is shown on that PTS page:
Files:
7a2b1dfee736436ffb50b1289d1ada57 1406 admin - aptitude_0.4.11.11-1.dsc
f165f08357bf23e646d6fa51e43a9b9b 6162554 admin - aptitude_0.4.11.11.orig.tar.gz
43833c63366bab3d906c7287487c7b7c 32626 admin - aptitude_0.4.11.11-1.diff.gz
I don't think dcmd is expecting that hyphen. It's probably related to the lack
of a Priority: in the Source stanza of debian/control for aptitude, so
the hyphen represents optional, extra etc.
Now that is a bug in aptitude itself but as the archive has accepted
this .changes file, dcmd should at least be able to handle it.
Editing the sample content and replacing the hyphens with 'optional' prevents
the bug showing up but dcmd should print a warning that the Priority of the
Source package has been guessed and continue to process the .changes file.
Equally, patching aptitude to have a Priority field in the Source stanza
allows the cross-build to work properly and for dcmd to handle the .changes
file.

I'll seek a lintian check on this too, however, I can't see where in Policy
it is stated that the Source stanza has to have either Section or Priority.
lintian does not currently complain about a missing 'Priority' in the
Source stanza.

[ Adam D. Barratt ]
* bts:
+ Add a note to the description of --smtp-server explaining that
reportbug.debian.org does not support relaying and is therefore not a
suitable server to use in circumstances where [email protected]
may be automatically Cced.
+ Ignore the --{force-,}interactive options when combined with -n.
(Closes: #531422)
* checkbashisms:
+ Detect shellscript wrappers that use "then" or "else" before calling
exec. Thanks, Raphael Geissert. (Closes: #530815)
+ Fix a false positive detection of ". $(foo bar)" as attempting to pass
arguments to a sourced script. Thanks, Raphael Geissert.
+ Detect use of passing arguments to a sourced script as part of a
conditional statement. Thanks, Raphael Geissert.
+ Correctly count the number of quotes in a line when detecting whether
we are currently inside a "quoted block". Thanks, Raphael Geissert.
(Closes: #531247)
+ Do not check the contents of a dpatch. The wrapper script always uses
/bin/sh and we can't detect the interpreter of a patch.
+ Improve the check for the use of $[] inside quoted text. Thanks,
Raphael Geissert.
+ Apply the "common lead-in text" to the "readonly" check.
+ Remove "\\" from the list of unsafe backslash escapes, as it appears to
work in all shells.
* dcmd: Parse changes / dsc files containing section or priority entries of
"-". (Closes: #531593)
* licensecheck: Fix an error in a regular expression which led to an
uninitialized value warning and missing version for some GPL headers.
Thanks, Jakub Wilk. (Closes: #531059)
* uscan: Make a regular expression example in the manpage clearer. Thanks,
Jason Heeris. (Closes: #530362)
* uupdate: Add support for .lzma compressed tarballs and diffs. Thanks to
Simon Richter for the patch. (Closes: #531570)
.
[ James Vega ]
* bts: Only Cc [email protected] if we're reasonably sure we have
an email body instead of simply control messages; i.e., if the user
specifies the --force-interactive option or the --interactive option and
chooses to edit the email body. (Closes: #530926)
* uscan: Log the correct filename when running the post-download action.
Simplify the surrounding logic so the logging and command are less likely
to get out of sync in the future.
.
[ Mohammed Adnène Trojette ]
* pts-subscribe: refer to bsd-mailx rather to the transitional mailx
package. Thanks Ansgar Burchardt for the patch. (Closes: #531332)
