You have been subscribed to a public bug by Micah Gersten (micahg): backportpackage should either clear the DEBEMAIL env variable or run update-maintainer on packages that currently have no Ubuntu version as the new backport versioning scheme triggers the update-maintainer error for people with ubuntu.com E-Mail addresses
I think clearing the env variable for the debuild call is the better option as we don't generally run update-maintainer on no change rebuilds AFAIK backportpackage -s quantal -d precise jqueryui -u ubuntu backportpackage: Downloading jqueryui_1.8.ooops.20+dfsg.orig.tar.gz from archive.ubuntu.com (0.578 MiB) backportpackage: Downloading jqueryui_1.8.ooops.20+dfsg-1.debian.tar.gz from archive.ubuntu.com (0.005 MiB) dpkg-source: info: extracting jqueryui in jqueryui-precise dpkg-source: info: unpacking jqueryui_1.8.ooops.20+dfsg.orig.tar.gz dpkg-source: info: unpacking jqueryui_1.8.ooops.20+dfsg-1.debian.tar.gz dch warning: new version (1.8.ooops.20+dfsg-1~ubuntu12.04.1) is less than the current version number (1.8.ooops.20+dfsg-1). dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -d -us -uc -S -nc -sa -v1.8.ooops.18+dfsg-1 dpkg-buildpackage: export CFLAGS from dpkg-buildflags (origin: vendor): -g -O2 -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -Wformat -Wformat-security dpkg-buildpackage: export CPPFLAGS from dpkg-buildflags (origin: vendor): -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 dpkg-buildpackage: export CXXFLAGS from dpkg-buildflags (origin: vendor): -g -O2 -fstack-protector --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -Wformat -Wformat-security dpkg-buildpackage: export FFLAGS from dpkg-buildflags (origin: vendor): -g -O2 dpkg-buildpackage: export LDFLAGS from dpkg-buildflags (origin: vendor): -Wl,-Bsymbolic-functions -Wl,-z,relro dpkg-buildpackage: source package jqueryui dpkg-buildpackage: source version 1.8.ooops.20+dfsg-1~ubuntu12.04.1 dpkg-buildpackage: source changed by Micah Gersten <[email protected]> dpkg-source --before-build jqueryui-precise dpkg-buildpackage: warning: it is a bad idea to generate a source package without cleaning up first, it might contain undesired files. dpkg-source -b jqueryui-precise dpkg-source: error: Version number suggests Ubuntu changes, but Maintainer: does not have Ubuntu address dpkg-source: info: using source format `3.0 (quilt)' dpkg-buildpackage: error: dpkg-source -b jqueryui-precise gave error exit status 255 debuild: fatal error at line 1350: dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot -d -us -uc -S -nc -sa -v1.8.ooops.18+dfsg-1 failed backportpackage: Error: debuild returned 29. ** Affects: ubuntu-dev-tools (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- [backportpackage] backportpackage errors out on packages with no Ubuntu revision https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1008021 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Backporters, which is subscribed to the bug report. -- ubuntu-backports mailing list [email protected] Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-backports
