I just saw Adam's last commit on #debian-qa ... 16:09 <CIA-6> lintian: adam * r42e0f31 lintian/ (debian/changelog lib/Util.pm): (log message trimmed) 16:09 <CIA-6> lintian: Use "local $_" in parse_dpkg_control to avoid stamping on the global version. 16:09 <CIA-6> lintian: Lintian::Tag::Info::_load_tag_data (called from ::New) in turn calls 16:09 <CIA-6> lintian: read_dpkg_control (and therefore parse_dpkg_control) which stamped on $_. 16:09 <CIA-6> lintian: As we now call Lintian::Tag::Info::new when outputting extended tag 16:09 <CIA-6> lintian: information using -i, doing so trampled on $_ in the current check script. ... which sounds either related or at least similar :) Cheers, gregor -- .''`.
