Package: git-buildpackage Version: 0.7.5 Severity: wishlist Hi,
it would be a useful feature if git-buildpackage would check the modified debian/changelog file after a run of 'gbp dch -some-option ...' to ensure the created file is UTF-8 encoded. Especially on greater packages where a built is taking some more time it's annoying to do all again as lintian was complaining about a wrong encoded changelog file. autopkgtest (< 4.0.2-1) is failing on not UTF-8 encoded hardly without a useful message and a otherwise succesful build with pbuilder is breaking. autopkgtest is fixed in between times. http://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/autopkgtest/autopkgtest.git/commit/?id=d34b6e2 Regards Carsten -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386, armhf Kernel: Linux 4.2.0-1-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=de_DE.utf8, LC_CTYPE=de_DE.utf8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages git-buildpackage depends on: ii devscripts 2.16.6 ii git 1:2.8.1-1 ii man-db 2.7.5-1 ii python-dateutil 2.4.2-1 ii python-pkg-resources 20.10.1-1.1 ii python-six 1.10.0-3 pn python:any <none> Versions of packages git-buildpackage recommends: ii cowbuilder 0.80 ii pbuilder 0.225.2 ii pristine-tar 1.34 ii python-requests 2.10.0-2 Versions of packages git-buildpackage suggests: ii python-notify 0.1.1-4 ii sudo 1.8.17p1-2 ii unzip 6.0-20 -- no debconf information
