Bug#485884: lintian: debian-watch-file-should-mangle-version reported with correctly mangled version
Package: lintian
Version: 1.24.0
Severity: normal
Hi,
Today while building a package of mine, I got the
debian-watch-file-should-mangle-version warning from lintian, even when
the debian/watch file is this:
version=3
opts="uversionmangle=s/(?=$)/+dfsg/" \
http://www.smcc.demon.nl/camstream/download/index.html \
camstream-(\d.+)\.tar\.gz debian debian/repack.sh
Thinking that lintian was complaining about my use of uversionmangle
instead of dversionmangle, I changed the opts line to:
opts="dversionmangle=s/\+dfsg//" \
But it still complains. I have read the code for the test, but I cannot
see why it fails to detect the mangling.
Uscan agrees that this works correctly:
$ uscan --report
(...)
Newest version on remote site is 0.27, local version is 0.27+dfsg
(mangled local version number 0.27)
=> Package is up to date
