From: maximilian attems <max@xxxxxxx> Subject: deb-pkg: improve maintainer identification Try harder to find email and maintainer name. Debian's own devscripts all use DEBEMAIL or DEBFULLNAME prior to an eventual EMAIL or NAME environment variable. Match their logic. "Anonymous" sounds nicer then "Kernel Compiler" if no name is found. Signed-off-by: maximilian attems <max@xxxxxxx> Signed-off-by: Frans Pop <elendil@xxxxxxxxx> Cc: Andres Salomon <dilinger@xxxxxxxxxx> --- I've removed some unnecessary braces. Also, "Anonymous Maintainer" seemed somewhat redundant to me; just "Anonymous" should do. diff --git a/scripts/package/builddeb b/scripts/package/builddeb index 2bd12c1..60f8de2 100644 --- a/scripts/package/builddeb +++ b/scripts/package/builddeb @@ -95,14 +95,30 @@ EOF chmod 755 "$tmpdir/DEBIAN/$script" done -name="Kernel Compiler <$(id -nu)@$(hostname -f)>" +# Try to determine maintainer and email values +if [ -n "$DEBEMAIL" ]; then + email=$DEBEMAIL +elif [ -n "$EMAIL" ]; then + email=$EMAIL +else + email=$(id -nu)@$(hostname -f) +fi +if [ -n "$DEBFULLNAME" ]; then + name=$DEBFULLNAME +elif [ -n "$NAME" ]; then + name=$NAME +else + name="Anonymous" +fi +maintainer="$name <$email>" + # Generate a simple changelog template cat <<EOF > debian/changelog linux ($packageversion) unstable; urgency=low * Custom built Linux kernel. - -- $name $(date -R) + -- $maintainer $(date -R) EOF # Generate copyright file @@ -130,7 +146,7 @@ cat <<EOF > debian/control Source: linux Section: base Priority: optional -Maintainer: $name +Maintainer: $maintainer Standards-Version: 3.6.1 EOF -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kbuild" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
