--- Begin Message ---Package: git-buildpackage Version: 0.6.22 Severity: important Dear Maintainer, I have several cow images and set the DIST env variable to easily switch between them. I found that `git-buildpackage --git-pbuilder` does not receive the DIST variable I have set: $ DIST=mydist git-buildpackage --git-pbuilder Building with cowbuilder for distribution sid ^^^--- wrong! The workaround is to use either: a) --git-builder=git-pbuilder`: $ git-buildpackage --git-builder=git-pbuilder building with cowbuilder for distribution mydist ^^^^^^--- good! b) --git-pbuilder --git-dist=mydist $ git-buildpackage --git-pbuilder --git-dist=mydist building with cowbuilder for distribution mydist ^^^^^^--- good! The function handling the --git-pbuilder command does not seem to pass the whole OS environement when invoking `git-pbuilder`. Unlike --git-builder which does pass the OS env. --git-dist should probably be set to default to whatever is provided in the DIST env variable. -- System Information: Debian Release: 8.0 APT prefers testing APT policy: (500, 'testing') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Foreign Architectures: i386 Kernel: Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (SMP w/4 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_GB.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_GB.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/dash Init: systemd (via /run/systemd/system) Versions of packages git-buildpackage depends on: ii devscripts 2.15.1 ii git 1:2.1.4-2.1 ii man-db 2.7.0.2-5 ii python 2.7.8-3 ii python-dateutil 2.2-2 ii python-pkg-resources 5.5.1-1 Versions of packages git-buildpackage recommends: ii cowbuilder 0.73 ii pristine-tar 1.33 Versions of packages git-buildpackage suggests: ii python-notify 0.1.1-4 ii unzip 6.0-16 -- no debconf information
