--- Begin Message ---Package: dgit Version: 4.0 Severity: normal There are merge and rebase workflows in use for the Debian changelogs of backports. Some backport maintainers merge the new version in testing into their backports branch, so that the previous backport's entry remains in the changelog (the 'merge' workflow). Others base each backport on the version in stretch, discarding the changelog entries for older backported versions (the 'rebase' workflow). For a backport using the rebase workflow, dgit refuses to push: Checking package changelog for archive version 2.13.0-1.1~bpo8+1 ... dpkg-parsechangelog: warning: 'from' option specifies non-existing version dpkg-parsechangelog: warning: use oldest entry that is later than the one specified dpkg-parsechangelog: warning: 'to' option specifies non-existing version dpkg-parsechangelog: warning: use newest entry that is earlier than the one specified dgit: missing field Version in parsed changelog dgit: Perhaps debian/changelog does not mention 2.13.0-1.1~bpo8+1 ? dgit has correctly identified the problem -- the changelog does indeed fail to mention 2.13.0-1.1~bpo8+1. But this is a perfectly legitimate approach to backporting (personally, I prefer the merge workflow, but a sponsee of mine uses the rebase workflow, which is how I ran across this).
