$ echo 'DEBCHANGE_RELEASE_HEURISTIC=log' >> ~/.devscripts Now dch won't use UNRELEASED and will simply look for a log of an upload in the parent directory to determine whether the version is released or not. The suite will be set to whatever is deemed appropriate based on the previous changelog entry or the -D switch, instead of using UNRELEASED.
