I never made such a suggestion, I think *both* devscripts and pbuilder ought to be fixed. The biggest problem is that there's no spec or man page or anything defining what those variables should hold. bts is older than pbuilder, so it might be tempting to point the finger at pbuilder. bts has a much finer logic to detect and use EMAIL/Debian Maintainer environment variables, but it has some mistakes. I suppose that the pbuilder fix would to implement such a logic, or at least permit overriding the decisions: right now, both tools hard code the same environment variable; would pbuilder use some PBUILDER_DEBMAINT="$DEBEMAIL" instead, that would do it. And would bts read the devscripts config file instead of using the environment to get that parameter, that would help too. Cheers, -- Loïc Minier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
