Public bug reported: When working on the 'cider' package, I was not able to build the package via 'debuild' after calling 'update-maintainer', to change the maintainer in debian/control to:
Maintainer: Ubuntu Developers <ubuntu-devel-disc...@lists.ubuntu.com> XSBC-Original-Maintainer: Debian Emacs addons team <pkg-emacsen-add...@lists.alioth.debian.org> On focal and groovy debuild [-S] fails with the following error: dh_elpa_test Invalid field given (XSBC_Original_Maintainer) at /usr/share/perl5/Debian/Control.pm line 122. make: *** [debian/rules:4: build] Error 255 dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build subprocess returned exit status 2 Everything works fine, if I remove the XSBC-Original-Maintainer field. The failing debdiff is attached.
