debian/changelog and add-log-mailing-address
Many debian/changelog files have a fragment at the end looking like this:
Local variables:
mode: debian-changelog
add-log-mailing-address: "SOME.EMAIL.ADDRESS"
End:
This is wrong; the add-log-mail-address entry should be removed, as it
can cause changes made by Emacs users to have the wrong email address
associated with them.
The proper place for Emacs to learn add-log-mailing-address from is
the user's ~/.emacs file.
Perhaps a lintian check could be added for this (very common!) bug?
