** Description changed: + [Impact] + dpkg-source will do a check for a scenario where the maintainer field in d/control does not contain "ubuntu" and the DEBEMAIL environment variable ends in @ubuntu.com. There are some Canonical employees that use an @canonical.com email address instead, so we should expand this check to also trigger on DEBEMAIL values that end in @canonical.com + [Test Case] In a source package that doesn't have XSBC-Original-Maintainer set run 1) DEBEMAIL=br...@canonical.com debuild -i -I -S -d With version of the dpkg in the release pocket you'll receive a warning, with the version of the package from -updates you'll instead receive an error. dpkg-source: error: Version number suggests Ubuntu changes, but Maintainer: does not have Ubuntu address dpkg-source: info: using options from sed-4.8/debian/source/options: --single-debian-patch --auto-commit dpkg-source: info: using source format '3.0 (quilt)' dpkg-buildpackage: error: dpkg-source -i.pc* -I.bzr -I.svn -ICVS -I.pc -i -I -b . subprocess returned exit status 2 debuild: fatal error at line 1182: dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -ui -i.pc* -I.bzr -I.svn -ICVS -I.pc -i -I -S -d failed - Original Description - -------------------- - dpkg-source will do a check for a scenario where the maintainer field in d/control does not contain "ubuntu" and the DEBEMAIL environment variable ends in @ubuntu.com. There are some Canonical employees that use an @canonical.com email address instead, so we should expand this check to also trigger on DEBEMAIL values that end in @canonical.com + [Other Info] + Having every Ubuntu user update dpkg for a change that'll only benefit Ubuntu developers seems like a bit much. So instead we'll stage this in -proposed and in the event there is an SRU of dpkg or a security update we'll get this included.
