Package: bzr-builddeb
Version: 2.8.7
Severity: normal
Howdy,
I've recently switched a package from using the pristine upstream tarball,
to requiring a re-pack of the tarball.
This means the version string specified in ‘debian/changelog’ needs to be
parsed by ‘uscan(1)’, via the ‘debian/watch’ option “dversionmangle”
<URL:http://manpages.debian.net/cgi-bin/man.cgi?sektion=1&query=uscan>.
For example, the Debian version string “3.7+dfsg.2-2” is taken as the
upstream version string “3.7+dfsg.2”, but this needs to be further altered
via the “dversionmangle” option to give the pristine upstream version
string “3.7”.
But this change has caused ‘bzr builddeb --source’ to fail because it is
not getting the correct version string for the pristine upstream tarball:
=====
$ bzr builddeb --source --merge

bzr: ERROR: Unable to find the needed upstream tarball for package
python-coverage, version 3.7+dfsg.2.
=====
The ‘builddeb’ command is mistakenly using “3.7+dfsg.2” as the pristine
upstream version string.
Whereas using ‘uscan’ directly succeeds in computing the correct upstream
version string:
=====
$ uscan --verbose --report
-- Scanning for watchfiles in .
-- Found watchfile in ./debian
-- In debian/watch, processing watchfile line:
opts="uversionmangle=s/(\d)([a-z]\d+)$/$1~$2/,dversionmangle=s/\+dfsg\.\d+$//"
http://pypi.python.org/packages/source/c/coverage/coverage-(.+).tar.gz
debian debian/repack
[…]
Newest version on remote site is 3.7, local version is 3.7+dfsg.2
(mangled local version number 3.7)
=> Package is up to date
-- Scan finished
=====
The ‘builddeb’ command should always get the same pristine upstream version
string as does ‘uscan’.
