Package: git-buildpackage Version: 0.6.0~git20120822 Severity: normal User: ubuntu-de...@lists.ubuntu.com Usertags: origin-ubuntu raring ubuntu-patch
The package fails to build from source if the DEB_VENDOR is not Debian, as the test output from git-dch expects Debian distribution specific behaviour. You can see the failed build log with DEB_VENDOR=Ubuntu here: https://launchpadlibrarian.net/121690052/buildlog_ubuntu-raring-i386.git-buildpackage_0.6.0~git20120822_FAILEDTOBUILD.txt.gz If the DEB_VENDOR is set to Debian, the testsuite passes and the build succeeds. Alternatively the dch tests could be skipped if the DEB_VENDOR is not Debian. Please consider applying this patch:
