Package: dgit Version: 1.3 Severity: normal During development (i.e. with an open debian/changelog) then running:
dgit --quilt=smash sbuild --dist sid --arch amd64 --no-apt-update --no-apt-upgrade Gets to the sbuild "Summary" banner and then hangs. The process tree is: $ pstree -ap 9912 dgit,9912 -w /usr/bin/dgit --quilt=smash -wdd sbuild --dist sid --arch amd64 --no-apt-update --no-apt-upgrade └─sbuild,10100 /usr/bin/sbuild -A --dist sid --arch amd64 --no-apt-update --no-apt-upgrade -d UNRELEASED sunxi-tools_1.2-3.dsc └─package log for,10106 $ strace -p 10100 Process 10100 attached wait4(10106, ^CProcess 10100 detached <detached ...> $ strace -p 10106 Process 10106 attached read(0, ^CProcess 10106 detached <detached ...> Running just: sbuild --dist sid --arch amd64 --no-apt-update --no-apt-upgrade Is fine. (nb: --no-apt-* make no difference, I just happened to be using them) I think the issue is the trailing "-d UNRELEASED" which dgit has tacked onto the sbuild command line. If I omit "--dist sid" from my bare sbuild command then this fails too, since sbuild will then parse UNRELEASED from the changelog. Perhaps there is also an sbuild bug here, but I think at best it could be expected to error out ("unknown distribution") rather succeeding so dgit would still prevent me from passing the required options. I have sbuild=0.65.2-1 (sid) and schroot=1.6.10-1+b1 (stretch).
