Package: devscripts Version: v2.23.7
Severity: important Tags: patch As the man page, user can set DEBCHANGE_TZ in /etc/devscripts.conf and ~/.devscripts to change the timezone of changelog entries, and also can change it by the environment variable TZ. https://manpages.debian.org/stretch/devscripts/dch.1.en.html But none of them is successful. The root cause is $DATE is always set as localtime(). The timezone is passed via $opt_tz, so adding judgement to check whether $opt_zt is set. Test a) Add DEBCHANGE_TZ in /etc/devscripts.conf dch -i b) TZ="xxxxxxxx" dch -i
