Package: git-buildpackage
Version: 0.9.14
Severity: normal

Hi,

I'm running gbp on an Ubuntu system to build packages for Debian. By
default, dch (and thus also gbp dch) uses distribution and version
number defaults for Ubuntu, rather than Debian (based on the results of
dpkg-vendor).

It is possible to override these defaults by passing `--vendor` to dch,
so it would be good if a value could be configured in gbp that is passed
to `dch --vendor`. Ideally, the value could be configured globally, or
per-package, I think.

There might be other tools that need to be told about the vendor, but I
have not found them so far.

Gr.

Matthijs
