Package: devscripts Version: 2.11.7 Severity: normal Hi,
in former times a dch -a -c .../path/to/changelog did indeed update the name and date footer. Now it doesn't anymore. Why has this change happened? I don't see any NEWS item concerning this? The only NEWS item is about release heuristic if nothing is given, but I definitely pass options onto dch. Please restore the old behaviour, or at least explain how to fix it, because I couldn't find it. dch -t didn't work either. -- Package-specific info: --- /etc/devscripts.conf --- --- ~/.devscripts --- Not present -- System Information: Debian Release: wheezy/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (499, 'unstable'), (101, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 3.4.0-rc7+ (SMP w/2 CPU cores; PREEMPT) Locale: LANG=en_US.utf8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages devscripts depends on: ii dpkg-dev 1.16.3 ii libc6 2.13-32 ii perl 5.14.2-10 ii python 2.7.2-10 ii python2.6 2.6.7-4 ii python2.7 2.7.3~rc2-2.1 Versions of packages devscripts recommends: ii at 3.1.13-1 ii curl 7.25.0-1 ii dctrl-tools 2.22 ii debian-keyring 2012.02.22 ii dput 0.9.6.3 ii equivs 2.0.9 ii fakeroot 1.18.3-1 ii gnupg 1.4.12-4 ii libcrypt-ssleay-perl 0.58-1 ii libjson-perl 2.53-1 ii libparse-debcontrol-perl 2.005-3 ii libsoap-lite-perl 0.714-1 ii liburi-perl 1.60-1 ii libwww-perl 6.04-1 ii lintian 2.5.7 ii man-db 2.6.1-2 ii patch 2.6.1-3 ii patchutils 0.3.2-1.1 ii python-debian 0.1.21 ii python-magic 5.11-1 ii sensible-utils 0.0.7 ii strace 4.5.20-2.3 ii unzip 6.0-6 ii wdiff 1.1.0-2 ii wget 1.13.4-3 ii xz-utils 5.1.1alpha+20110809-3 Versions of packages devscripts suggests: ii bsd-mailx [mailx] 8.1.2-0.20111106cvs-1 ii build-essential 11.5 ii cvs-buildpackage <none> ii devscripts-el <none> ii gnuplot 4.6.0-8 ii libauthen-sasl-perl 2.1500-1 ii libfile-desktopentry-perl 0.04-3 ii libnet-smtp-ssl-perl 1.01-3 ii libterm-size-perl 0.207-1 ii libtimedate-perl 1.2000-1 ii libyaml-syck-perl <none> ii mutt 1.5.21-5+b1 ii openssh-client [ssh-client] 1:5.9p1-5 ii svn-buildpackage 0.8.4 ii w3m 0.5.3-7 -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-bugs-dist-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
