clone 301607 -1 reassign -1 cstream severity -1 serious retitle -1 cstream: debian/rules clean modifies the source package severity 301607 important thanks
I don't consider this a release-critical bug in cdbs because packages shouldn't be using DEB_AUTO_UPDATE_DEBIAN_CONTROL *anyway*: packages that do so are in violation of policy section 4.8, because it means ./debian/rules build clean is no longer idempotent when run using differing versions of cdbs. As a result, while I consider DEB_AUTO_UPDATE_DEBIAN_CONTROL a gross misfeature of cdbs that ought to be removed, it is the responsibility of other package maintainers to not use it for packages uploaded to Debian -- it is not the fault of the cdbs maintainers that you're using an optional feature of cdbs that violates policy.
