Bug#794080: tasksel: think about the future of the XBC-Maintainer fields



Source: tasksel
Severity: important

Hi,

While uploading tasksel this morning I wondered while seeing this in
queued's log:
| Jul 30 10:27:38 tasksel_3.33_amd64.changes processed successfully (uploader zinoviev@debian.org)

Adam pointed this out:
| adsb@franck:~$ grep Maintainer queue/unchecked/tasksel_3.33_amd64.changes
| Maintainer: Anton Zinoviev <zinoviev@debian.org>

and of course I had already checked that debian/control seems OK:
| Maintainer: Debian Install System Team <debian-boot@lists.debian.org>
| Uploaders: Otavio Salvador <otavio@debian.org>, Christian Perrier <bubulle@debian.org>

The funny thing is that we have a bunch of XBC-Maintainer fields in
there; for Anton, that's task-bulgarian, task-bulgarian-desktop,
task-cyrillic, and task-cyrillic-desktop.

This leads to the following things in the changes file:
| Maintainer: Anton Zinoviev <zinoviev@debian.org>
| Changed-By: Cyril Brulebois <kibi@debian.org>

This is likely something that might be looked into and fixed in the
proper tool(s), but I'm not sure there's much sense in keeping these
specific fields in the first place.

Thoughts?

Mraw,
KiBi.
