Package: devscripts
Version: 2.10.59
Severity: wishlist
File: /usr/bin/debchange
Tags: patch
Hello,
it would be great if debchage optionally allowed to use maintainer details from
debian/control rather than DEBFULLNAME/DEBEMAIL. I suggested a couple of use
cases in the updated manual page (quoted below). A patch implementing this
feature is attached.
.BR \-\-controlmaint ", " \-M
Use maintainer details from the debian/control Maintainer field rather than
relevant environment variables (\fBDEBFULLNAME\fR/\fBDEBEMAIL\fR etc.). This
option might be useful to restore details of the main maintainer in the
changelog trailer after a bogus edit (e.g. when \fB\-m\fR was intended but
forgot) or when releasing a package in the name of the main maintainer (e.g.
the team).
