package: devscripts version: 2.20.3 severity: serious Hi,
It seems the autopkgtest for devscript fails when the current ubuntu version is unknown: https://ci.debian.net/data/autopkgtest/testing/amd64/d/devscripts/5161251/log.gz testUbuntuIncrement ASSERT:error output of dch --no-conf -c "/tmp/shunit.VOe8J9/tmp/changelog" --vendor Ubuntu -i "Version test."\n expected:<> but was:<dch warning: Unable to determine the current Ubuntu development release. Using UNRELEASED instead.> testUbuntuRebuild ASSERT:error output of dch --no-conf -c "/tmp/shunit.VOe8J9/tmp/changelog" --vendor Ubuntu -R "Version test."\n expected:<> but was:<dch warning: Unable to determine the current Ubuntu development release. Using UNRELEASED instead.> When the name of the current ubunto release is unknown, this test should probaby be skipped, instead of failing, as it is not an issue with devscripts. The trigger for this issue is in the releasedate for a new ubuntu release, which is included in the latest distro-info-data, which is not yet in testing (it will probably migrate in a few days). However, this is a bug in the devscript test. The devscripts autopkgtest shouldn't start failing if the data for ubuntu is outdated or missing in testing, stable, oldstable, ... Cheers, Ivo
