Bug Description

Binary package hint: devscripts

devscripts (2.10.59ubuntu1) lucid; urgency=low

  * Resynchronise with Debian. Remaining changes:
    - Drop universe packages from Recommends to Suggests:
      + libcrypt-ssleay-perl: only needed for a corner case (uscan on SSL
        download sites), wasn't installed by default in previous releases
        either, and seems quite dead upstream
      + libsoap-lite-perl: only needed for one less common command ("select")
        for bts, which isn't useful for Ubuntu itself, and pulls in a lot of
        other universe Perl libraries
      + debian-{keyring,maintainers}: not useful enough in Ubuntu
      + equivs: too much of a hack to install by default
      + libyaml-syck-perl: transition-check is fairly Debian-specific
    - scripts/debchange.pl:
      + Adjust --security template for Ubuntu.
      + Add -U/--upstream flag that forces original "just increment
        the end" behaviour; Ubuntu is upstream for some pieces of software.
      + Add --distributor= to override lsb_release output.
      + Default to "lucid" as distribution.
      + Add "ubuntu1" to version string for new versions, with tweaks for
        special cases.
      + Add -R/--rebuild flag for Ubuntu's no-change rebuilds.
      + Don't use the last distribution in debian/changelog when doing
        "dch -r" on Ubuntu. "Just because it was last uploaded to jaunty
        doesn't mean that's the right thing to do now." Thanks to Colin
        Watson. (LP: #429288)
    - scripts/debsign.{sh,1}: Implement DEBSIGN_ALWAYS_RESIGN variable to skip
      the "Would you like to use the current signature?" question. (Debian
      #447955)
    - scripts/debuild.pl: Enforce Ubuntu merge policy.
    - scripts/dscverify.pl: Add Ubuntu keyrings.
    - scripts/rmadison.pl: Change default URL parameter to ubuntu.
    - scripts/uupdate.{sh,1}: Use -0ubuntu1 default revision on Ubuntu.
    - Add test/debchange.pl, test/Makefile: debchange test suite; call it
      during build in debian/rules. Also add lsb-release build dependency for
      this, so that debchange uses Ubuntu mode.
