[Bug 1008021] [NEW] [backportpackage] backportpackage errors out on packages with no Ubuntu revision

[Launchpad Bug Tracker]

backportpackage should either clear the DEBEMAIL env variable or run
update-maintainer on packages that currently have no Ubuntu version as
the new backport versioning scheme triggers the update-maintainer error
for people with ubuntu.com E-Mail addresses

I think clearing the env variable for the debuild call is the better
option as we don't generally run update-maintainer on no change rebuilds
AFAIK
