Package: dpkg-dev Version: 1.17.26 Severity: normal Dear Maintainer,
When building an architecture independent package: "dpkg-buildpackage -A" generates ..._all.changes (correct) but "dpkg-buildpackage -g" generates ..._amd64.changes (incorrect) i.e. the changes filename incorrectly mentions the architecture of the build machine. I have been using 1.17.26 on jessie; 1.18.7 seems to give the same results. Note that in 1.18.7, -g is supposed to be equivalent to --build=source,all. And --build=source,all generates ..._all.changes (correctly). ( 1.17.26 does not support --build=source,all. ) -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.4 APT prefers stable-updates APT policy: (800, 'stable-updates'), (800, 'stable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.5.0-0.bpo.2-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages dpkg-dev depends on: ii base-files 8+deb8u4 ii binutils 2.25-5 ii bzip2 1.0.6-7+b3 ii libdpkg-perl 1.17.26 ii make 4.1-9~qi+bpo8+1 ii patch 2.7.5-1 ii xz-utils 5.1.1alpha+20120614-2+b3 Versions of packages dpkg-dev recommends: ii build-essential 11.7 ii fakeroot 1.20.2-1 ii gcc [c-compiler] 4:4.9.2-2 ii gcc-4.8 [c-compiler] 4.8.4-1 ii gcc-4.9 [c-compiler] 4.9.2-10 ii gnupg 1.4.18-7+deb8u1 ii gnupg2 redacted ii gpgv 1.4.18-7+deb8u1 ii gpgv2 redacted ii libalgorithm-merge-perl 0.08-2 Versions of packages dpkg-dev suggests: ii debian-keyring 2016.01.20 -- no debconf information
