Package: devscripts Version: 2.10.27 Severity: normal Hello, let's consider a package maintained by a team in a common repository; changes are done by the team members and the interleaves with each other, so the changelog is something like:
[ Author A ] * changed here * changed there [ Author B] * simple change somewhere [ Author C] * just typo fix Now, let's consider "Author A" wants to add a new item in the changeloh, debchange recognize it's a multi-author changelog entry and it prompts for: [ Author A ] * changed here * changed there [ Author B ] * simple change somewhere [ Author C ] * just typo fix [ Author A ] * <cursor prompt> Well, I think that dch should recognize that "Author A" has already a "part" of the changelog entry, and prompt right under it, like: [ Author A ] * changed here * changed there * <cursor prompt> [ Author B] * simple change somewhere [ Author C] * just typo fix Thanks, Sandro -- Package-specific info: --- /etc/devscripts.conf --- --- ~/.devscripts --- DEBCHANGE_RELEASE_HEURISTIC=changelog DEBCHANGE_MAINTTRAILER=no USCAN_DESTDIR=/home/morph/deb/tarballs/ USCAN_SYMLINK=rename DEBUILD_LINTIAN_OPTS=-I -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing'), (1, 'experimental') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.22-2-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/bash Versions of packages devscripts depends on: ii dpkg-dev 1.14.19 package building tools for Debian ii libc6 2.7-11 GNU C Library: Shared libraries ii perl 5.10.0-10 Larry Wall's Practical Extraction Versions of packages devscripts recommends: ii at 3.1.10.1 Delayed job execution and batch pr ii bsd-mailx [mailx] 8.1.2-0.20071201cvs-3 A simple mail user agent ii curl 7.18.1-1 Get a file from an HTTP, HTTPS or ii cvs 1:1.12.13-10 Concurrent Versions System ii dctrl-tools 2.12 Command-line tools to process Debi ii debian-keyring 2007.12.04 GnuPG (and obsolete PGP) keys of D ii debian-maintainers 1.33 GPG keys of Debian maintainers ii dput 0.9.2.32 Debian package upload tool ii dupload 2.6.4 utility to upload Debian packages ii elinks-lite [www-b 0.11.3-7+b1 advanced text-mode WWW browser - l ii epiphany-gecko [ww 2.22.1.1-1 Intuitive GNOME web browser - Geck ii equivs 2.0.7-0.1 Circumvent Debian package dependen ii fakeroot 1.9.5 Gives a fake root environment ii git-core 1:1.5.5.1-1 fast, scalable, distributed revisi ii gnupg 1.4.6-2.2 GNU privacy guard - a free PGP rep ii iceweasel [www-bro 2.0.0.14-2 lightweight web browser based on M ii libauthen-sasl-per 2.11-1 Authen::SASL - SASL Authentication ii libcrypt-ssleay-pe 0.57-1+b1 Support for https protocol in LWP ii libparse-debcontro 2.005-2 Easy OO parsing of Debian control- ii libsoap-lite-perl 0.71-2 Client and server side SOAP implem ii libterm-size-perl 0.2-4+b1 Perl extension for retrieving term ii libtimedate-perl 1.1600-9 Time and date functions for Perl ii liburi-perl 1.35.dfsg.1-1 Manipulates and accesses URI strin ii libwww-perl 5.812-1 WWW client/server library for Perl ii libyaml-syck-perl 1.01-1+b1 Fast, lightweight YAML loader and ii lintian 1.23.48 Debian package checker ii lsb-release 3.2-12 Linux Standard Base version report ii lynx [www-browser] 2.8.6-2 Text-mode WWW Browser ii mailx 1:20071201-3 Transitional package for mailx ren ii man-db 2.5.2-1 on-line manual pager ii mercurial 1.0-4 Scalable distributed version contr ii openssh-client [ss 1:4.7p1-9 secure shell client, an rlogin/rsh ii opera [www-browser 9.50-20070903.2 The Opera Web Browser ii patch 2.5.9-5 Apply a diff file to an original ii patchutils 0.2.31-4 Utilities to work with patches ii strace 4.5.15-1.2 A system call tracer ii subversion 1.4.6dfsg1-4 Advanced version control system ii unzip 5.52-11 De-archiver for .zip files ii w3m [www-browser] 0.5.1-5.1+b1 WWW browsable pager with excellent ii wdiff 0.5-17 Compares two files word by word ii wget 1.11.2-1 retrieves files from the web ii xemacs21-mule [www 21.4.21-3 highly customizable text editor -- -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
