** Description changed: + Stable update justification: + + Impact: New packagers trying to use dh_make in a desktop session started by lightdm get horribly confused when it outputs a huge pile of garbage to debian/changelog and debian/control, due to lightdm not setting LOGNAME while gdm does. (Iain Lane points out that users of zsh are unaffected because it sets LOGNAME itself.) + Development fix: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dh-make/0.59ubuntu1 + Stable fix: Identical to 0.59ubuntu1, just with a different version number (0.59ubuntu0.1). http://paste.ubuntu.com/716404/ + Test case: Create a dummy package (I created an empty example-0.1 directory and changed into it). Run 'env -u DEBFULLNAME -u DEBEMAIL dh_make'. If this bug is present then you'll see lots of junk in debian/changelog and debian/control rather than valid files. + Regression potential: Obviously check that dh_make still actually works, but I think this update is pretty safe. + + Original report follows: + Please read this description published on ubuntuforums: http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=1861850 I'm also affected by this bug and I can add a little detail - dh_make put list of users to debian/changelog. I think that this is critical bug in oneiric.
