Hi, this is mainly for djpig since it relates to stuff we discussed on #debian-dpkg, however I post it here so that others have the opportunity to comment as well.
With Frank, we thought that instead of calling dpkg-parsechangelog in the parse_changelog function, it ought to work in the opposite direction: dpkg-parsechangelog should call parse_changelog() to do its job. So I implemented that and fixed the various scripts that called parse_changelog. At the same time, this new interface enables us to use newer options of the changelog parser. I took this opportunity to fix #28701 by extracting the second entry in the changelog file and decide based on the upstream version of each entry if we have to include the orig.tar.gz or not. And last, since I found the code in dpkg-genchanges to be needlessly complicated, I refactored it a bit and fixed a bug concerning the generation of the Description field which led to duplicate descriptions like this: Description: debootstrap - Bootstrap a basic Debian system debootstrap-udeb - Bootstrap the Debian system debootstrap-udeb - Bootstrap the Debian system (udeb) Everything seems to work here and I hope to be able to push that quickly once djpig has reviewed it (it lacks Changelog and debian/changelog modifications but I do that last just before the push, otherwise it gets in the way of numerous rebase).
