Bug#237216: dpkg-dev: dpkg-genchanges can't PGP sign anymore
Package: dpkg-dev
Version: 1.10.19
Severity: grave
Tags: sid
Justification: renders package unusable
This is what i get repeatedly when executing dpkg-buildpackage on various
packages:
------- snip -------------
You need a pass phrase to unlock your RSA secret key.
Key for user ID: Paul Seelig <pseelig@debian.org>
1024-bit key, key ID 57137FE5, created 1996/03/26
Enter pass phrase:
Pass phrase is good. Just a moment....
dpkg-genchanges
dpkg-genchanges: error: syntax error in source control file ../ethiop_0.7-8.dsc at line 31: expected PGP signature, found something else `'
------- snip -------------
Downgrading to dpkg-dev version 1.10.18.1 (at least temporarily) solved
this problem for me. Seems like the fix for #232916 (which never has been a
problem in my environment) actually made things worse...
