Package: pylint Version: 1.8.1-1 Severity: wishlist Hi,
When I try to build the package from the git repo it fails with the following error (even if I can't find it in the orig tarball or in the one built from the pristine-tar tarball: dpkg-source: warning: file pylint-1.8.1/.eggs/pytest_runner-4.2-py2.7.egg/EGG-INFO/metadata.json has no final newline (either original or modified version) dpkg-source: info: local changes detected, the modified files are: pylint-1.8.1/.eggs/README.txt pylint-1.8.1/.eggs/pytest_runner-4.2-py2.7.egg/EGG-INFO/DESCRIPTION.rst pylint-1.8.1/.eggs/pytest_runner-4.2-py2.7.egg/EGG-INFO/LICENSE.txt pylint-1.8.1/.eggs/pytest_runner-4.2-py2.7.egg/EGG-INFO/PKG-INFO pylint-1.8.1/.eggs/pytest_runner-4.2-py2.7.egg/EGG-INFO/RECORD pylint-1.8.1/.eggs/pytest_runner-4.2-py2.7.egg/EGG-INFO/WHEEL pylint-1.8.1/.eggs/pytest_runner-4.2-py2.7.egg/EGG-INFO/entry_points.txt pylint-1.8.1/.eggs/pytest_runner-4.2-py2.7.egg/EGG-INFO/metadata.json pylint-1.8.1/.eggs/pytest_runner-4.2-py2.7.egg/EGG-INFO/namespace_packages.txt pylint-1.8.1/.eggs/pytest_runner-4.2-py2.7.egg/EGG-INFO/requires.txt pylint-1.8.1/.eggs/pytest_runner-4.2-py2.7.egg/EGG-INFO/top_level.txt pylint-1.8.1/.eggs/pytest_runner-4.2-py2.7.egg/ptr.py dpkg-source: info: you can integrate the local changes with dpkg-source --commit dpkg-source: error: aborting due to unexpected upstream changes, see /tmp/pylint_1.8.1-2.diff.Gt1Wnv One way to ignore this would be to add the following line in debian/source/options: extend-diff-ignore = \.eggs(?:$|/.*) I'll propose a PR as patch for this in a minute. Let me know if there's another way to fix it. Thanks Joseph
