Bug#647028: lintian: warn when changelog contains UNRELEASED even if .changes contains something valid
Package: lintian
Version: 2.5.3
Severity: wishlist
I build my package with sbuild and it writes the Distribution
field in the .changes according to the parameter given on the command
line.
I recently had the case that I have left UNRELEASED in debian/changelog
and built my package with sbuild and lintian did not warn me.
I'm not sure what the proper solution is. Ideally it would detect the
mismatch beween the .changes and the changelog in the source package but
I guess it's not easy.
