I made another test and removed the "override_mail_sender_in_testsuite" patch
from quilt 0.46-8ubuntu1 and it still builds...
So I found on the changelog:
* [debian/patches/override_mail_sender_in_testsuite]
override the mail sender in the testsuite so that it works even on
misconfigured chroots used to compile etch over and over
(Closes: #393985).
So according to http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=393985
This happens when quilt fails to retrieve the hostname, ie:
- /etc/mailname does not exist
- `hostname -f` does not return a fqdn
- neither does `hostname`
Ie, it only happens on misconfigured build daemons and chroots
I can't remember exactly but I might have tried to build it using a
misconfigured pbuilder...
Anyway I believe that override_mail_sender_in_testsuite should be updated...
