Hi there,

Using dch to build backports, I'm doing:
dch --bpo -m ""

unfortunately, this makes this kind of changelog:

foo (1.2.3-4~bpo8+1) jessie-backports; urgency=medium

  * Rebuild for jessie-backports.
  *

 -- Thomas Goirand <[email protected]>  SOME-DATE

Notice the empty line. To remove it, I then need to do:
sed -i -e 's/^  \* $/d' debian/changelog

which is annoying. Is there a way to have dch not produce
this empty line? So far, I haven't seen it. If not, please
add such an option. If it exists, please let me know how
to do it, and sorry for filing such a user-support bug
(though I haven't found how, and probably it'd be nice
to fix the manpage to have the --bpo option tell how to
do what I need).

Cheers,

Thomas Goirand (zigo)
