Package: mercurial-buildpackage Version: 0.9 Severity: normal Hi Jens Peter, I've tried to rebuild mercurial-buildpackage for Univention Corporate Server, a Debian derived distribution based on Debian stable (currently Lenny, our next release will be based on Squeeze).
The guidelines for derived distributions recommend to add a distribution specific version suffix to distinguish the rebuilt package with the original Debian package: http://wiki.debian.org/Derivatives/Guidelines The change you introduced in 0.9 | * Check that mercurial-buildpackage's changelog version matches the one | in Constants.hx. breaks such builds, since "0.9+distrosuffix1" is != to "0.9" coming from Constants.hx. It's not obvious to me, why this check was added to debian/rules, but if it's required maybe it could be modified to test, whether the base version is identical to the version from Constants.hx?
