Package: bzr-builddeb Version: 0.16.2 Severity: important When invoked with no arguments in a clean checkout of revision 36 of
http://bzr.debian.org/bzr/pkg-nis/nis/debian bzr-buildpackage dies with a Python traceback, apparently due to trying to parse one of the historical changelog entries at the foot of the NIS changelog which are in a non-standard format. This isn't a great feature of the source package but none of the other Debian tools mind and there's no need for the program to be parsing these historical entries. Obviously the error reporting for the parse error isn't ideal either. $ bzr-buildpackage Building branch from revision [EMAIL PROTECTED] bzr: ERROR: debian_bundle.changelog.ChangelogParseError: Could not parse changelog: * nis-1.20-2 Tue Jul 2 11:28:30 MET DST 1996 Traceback (most recent call last): File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/bzrlib/commands.py", line 718, in run_bzr_catch_errors return run_bzr(argv) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/bzrlib/commands.py", line 679, in run_bzr ret = run(*run_argv) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/bzrlib/commands.py", line 375, in run_argv_aliases return self.run(**all_cmd_args) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/bzrlib/plugins/builddeb/__init__.py", line 223, in run (changelog, larstiq) = find_changelog(t, merge) File "/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/bzrlib/plugins/builddeb/util.py", line 116, in find_changelog changelog = Changelog(contents) File "/var/lib/python-support/python2.4/debian_bundle/changelog.py", line 226, in __init__ raise ChangelogParseError(line) ChangelogParseError: Could not parse changelog: * nis-1.20-2 Tue Jul 2 11:28:30 MET DST 1996 bzr 0.17.0candidate1 on python 2.4.4.final.0 (linux2) arguments: ['/usr/bin/bzr', 'builddeb'] ** please send this report to [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: powerpc (ppc) Kernel: Linux 2.6.21-1-powerpc Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages bzr-builddeb depends on: ii bzr 0.17~rc1-1 Bazaar, the next-generation distri ii dpkg-dev 1.14.4 package building tools for Debian ii fakeroot 1.7.1 Gives a fake root environment ii python 2.4.4-6 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-central 0.5.14 register and build utility for Pyt ii python-deb822 0.3 Read and manipulate RFC822-like fi ii python-debian 0.1.2 python modules to work with Debian bzr-builddeb recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
