Package: cdbs Version: 0.4.122 Followup-For: Bug #724281 Dear Maintainer,
i'm experiencing the same problem.
after a suggestion from jonas that it might be related to locales, i tried
running the licensecheck with the following locales:
C
en_US.utf-8
de_AT.utf-8
for testing i chose the cdbs package itself (cdbs-0.4.123, currently UNRELEASED,
commit 512bff6636ad09a).
i first set the locales (both LC_ALL and LANG), then ran the following command
twice, storing the generated debian/copyright_newhints:
$ DEB_MAINTAINER_MODE=yes dpkg-buildpackage -rfakeroot
the resulting files (and the output of `locale` for each locale) can be found in
the attachment.
as you can see, i got 6 different copyright_newhints :-(
