Package: lintian Version: 2.22.0 Severity: normal Hi!
[ I posted this at <https://salsa.debian.org/lintian/lintian/commit/a61d0838dfd4cf8e168bb53ce85759b36e3008ee#note_104706> but as one never knows whether salsa is black-holing stuff, and it makes it difficult to track this kind of thing… ] [checks/source-changelog.pm] > tag 'unreleased-changelog-distribution' > if lc($entries[0]->Distribution) eq 'unreleased'; This is actually problematic, as it will trip over an actual upload suite named "unreleased" (in lower case) used in the debian ports archive. The match should really be against the upper case version, because these are not case-sensitive anyway. This convention was invented back in the day (in the ftp.gnuab.org era, see [G]), AFAIR before the UNRELEASED convention sprung up(?), to be able to upload signed builds of diverged packages that could not be then subsequently uploaded into the Debian archive. See the <https://www.ports.debian.org/archive> Upload Policy section for the current incarnation.
