Package: dpkg-cross
Version: 2.2.1
Severity: critical
As you may know, we use dpkg-cross to build linux kernel and modules
udebs (throught massbuild script) and while doing the last upgrade I
noticed that the generated .changes file doesn't include the source
anymore. Instead, it builds a source.changes and <arch>.changes file.
That broken our process and forces us to use mergechanges for every
upload. Please revert to the previous behaviour.
Thanks in advance,

dpkg-cross does not handle .changes files anymore. Any change will be a
result of bug fixes in dpkg or dpkg-dev.
The old (buggy) dpkg-buildpackage diversion has been removed (v2.0.0)
and will not be restored - it is almost a decade out of date.
There is no justification for retaining the version of
dpkg-buildpackage that was in dpkg-cross <<2.0.0.
I am closing this bug as invalid. The behaviour you describe is a
known bug in the dpkg-buildpackage script removed in v2.0.0. I do not
intend to cause a regression of that bug.
See also bug #453267 and #439979.
