[Bug 2002871] Re: Failed pkgbinarymangler tests with debhelper 13.10

[Dimitri John Ledkov]

IMHO debhelper should honor the same builder settings that launchpad
already exposes for the pkgbinarymangler such that notrimdch mode is
then implied there. Or we should patch dpkg to do that, like we did with
noudeb.

I think it is to do with reading /CurrentlyBuilding file settings.
(Purpose setting set to PPA, with some exception for some PPAs).

Separately, i'm not sure about dropping pkgbinarymangler operation mode,
since not all packages use debhelper right?

Title:
  Failed pkgbinarymangler tests with debhelper 13.10

Status in pkgbinarymangler package in Ubuntu:
  In Progress

Bug description:
  To be able to update pkgbinarymangler to address bug #2002845, I
  disabled 3 tests which would otherwise have failed at buildtime. Those
  tests, which were simply commented in test/run, are:

  - test_debian_changelog_truncation
  - test_native_changelog_truncation
  - test_ppa_debian_changelog

  Ideally they should be fixed rather than disabled, of course. I'm
  talking about this upload:
