As previously mentioned, it's configurable behavior of dch (which I don't use anyway), so we can both be happy. (I don't use dch anyway.) Having to repeat the build and test cycle one last time when I'm ready to upload is a *feature*, as far as I'm concerned, not a bug. I use that intentionally. I'm pretty happy with the current workflow, so as long as no one breaks it, I don't really have any worries. :) I have a mild preference against messing about with it, since it already works for me, but if that happens, I suppose I'll figure it out. -- Russ Allbery (r...@debian.org) <http://www.eyrie.org/~eagle/>
