Package: dpkg-dev Version: 1.19.7 Severity: important Between versions 1.19.6 and 1.19.7 the behavior of the -P option for dpkg-buildpackage changed. At 1.19.6 if there was no string directly on the -P option, the following argument would be interpreted as the profiles to set. At 1.19.7 the string MUST be part of the same argument.
ie at 1.19.6, `dpkg-buildpackage -a arm64 -P cross` worked, while 1.19.7 *requires* `dpkg-buildpackage -a arm64 -Pcross` (the latter may have worked with 1.19.6, but the former worked with 1.19.6) I see good arguments both for and against allowing or not the profile list being a separate argument. Overtly user-visible behavior though should NOT change with patch-level changes (should be minor-version). -- (\___(\___(\______ --=> 8-) EHM <=-- ______/)___/)___/) \BS ( | ehem+sig...@m5p.com PGP 87145445 | ) / \_CS\ | _____ -O #include <stddisclaimer.h> O- _____ | / _/ 8A19\___\_|_/58D2 7E3D DDF4 7BA6 <-PGP-> 41D1 B375 37D0 8714\_|_/___/5445
