Public bug reported:
The XSBC-Original-Maintainer reflects who was the original maintainer
before it was overridden by the vendor. However, when the vendor is the
author of the first packaging and there is no such packaging in Debian,
the -0ubuntu1 is used to reflect that.
However, dpkg-source warns that this field is missing but it does not
make sense since the maintainer *is* the original maintainer as long as
it does not exist in Debian. Expected behavior would be for the warning
to not appear in this case.
Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a package with a -0ubuntu1 version in d/changelog and no
XSBC-Original-Maintainer in d/control
2. Build the package using dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc
3. Watch the warning appear as dpkg-source is called from dpkg-buildpackage
I have tried to apply the following patch to dpkg-1.22.6ubuntu6.1 in
Noble but the tests fail and I do not speak enough Perl to know why:
