Package: devscripts Version: 2.16.2ubuntu3 Severity: serious Justification: Policy 12.1
dcmd supports .buildinfo files since version 2.16.1 (bug #774554), however this isn't documented anywhere on the man page and so it looks to the user that it isn't implemented at all. The man page should mention that dcmd has a --buildinfo parameter that selects .buildinfo files. -- Package-specific info: --- /etc/devscripts.conf --- --- ~/.devscripts --- Not present -- System Information: Debian Release: stretch/sid APT prefers xenial-updates APT policy: (500, 'xenial-updates'), (500, 'xenial-security'), (500, 'xenial'), (100, 'xenial-backports') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 4.13.0-38-generic (SMP w/8 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages devscripts depends on: ii dpkg-dev 1.18.4ubuntu1.4 ii libc6 2.23-0ubuntu10 ii perl 5.22.1-9ubuntu0.2 pn python3:any <none> Versions of packages devscripts recommends: ii apt 1.2.26 ii at 3.1.18-2ubuntu1 ii curl 7.47.0-1ubuntu2.7 ii dctrl-tools 2.24-2 ii dput 0.9.6.4ubuntu3 ii fakeroot 1.20.2-1ubuntu1 ii file 1:5.25-2ubuntu1 ii gnupg 1.4.20-1ubuntu3.1 ii gnupg2 2.1.11-6ubuntu2 ii libdistro-info-perl 0.14build1 ii libencode-locale-perl 1.05-1 ii liburi-perl 1.71-1 ii libwww-perl 6.15-1 ii lintian 2.5.43ubuntu0.1 ii man-db 2.7.5-1 ii patch 2.7.5-1 ii patchutils 0.3.4-1 ii python3-debian 0.1.27ubuntu2 ii python3-magic 1:5.25-2ubuntu1 ii sensible-utils 0.0.9ubuntu0.16.04.1 ii strace 4.11-1ubuntu3 ii unzip 6.0-20ubuntu1 ii wdiff 1.2.2-1build1 ii wget 1.17.1-1ubuntu1.3 ii xz-utils 5.1.1alpha+20120614-2ubuntu2 Versions of packages devscripts suggests: ii build-essential 12.1ubuntu2 pn cvs-buildpackage <none> ii debian-keyring 2016.01.20 pn devscripts-el <none> pn diffoscope <none> pn dose-extra <none> ii equivs 2.0.9+nmu1 pn gnuplot <none> ii gpgv 1.4.20-1ubuntu3.1 ii libauthen-sasl-perl 2.1600-1 ii libfile-desktopentry-perl 0.22-1 ii liblwp-protocol-https-perl 6.06-2 ii libnet-smtp-ssl-perl 1.03-1 pn libsoap-lite-perl <none> ii libterm-size-perl 0.207-1build3 ii libtimedate-perl 2.3000-2 pn libyaml-syck-perl <none> ii mailutils [mailx] 1:2.99.99-1ubuntu2 ii mozilla-devscripts 0.44 pn mutt <none> ii openssh-client [ssh-client] 1:7.2p2-4ubuntu2.4 ii s-nail [mailx] 14.8.6-1 pn svn-buildpackage <none> pn w3m <none> -- no debconf information
