[Bug 1751114] Re: dpkg-source on xenial doesn't support .asc file in .dsc for v1.0 source format

[Brian Murray]

Hello Timo, or anyone else affected,

Accepted dpkg into xenial-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpkg/1.18.4ubuntu1.4
in a few hours, and then in the -proposed repository.

Please help us by testing this new package.  See
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Testing/EnableProposed for documentation on how
to enable and use -proposed.Your feedback will aid us getting this
update out to other Ubuntu users.

If this package fixes the bug for you, please add a comment to this bug,
mentioning the version of the package you tested and change the tag from
verification-needed-xenial to verification-done-xenial. If it does not
fix the bug for you, please add a comment stating that, and change the
tag to verification-failed-xenial. In either case, without details of
your testing we will not be able to proceed.

Further information regarding the verification process can be found at
https://wiki.ubuntu.com/QATeam/PerformingSRUVerification .  Thank you in
advance!

** Changed in: dpkg (Ubuntu Xenial)
       Status: New => Fix Committed

Title:
  dpkg-source on xenial doesn't support .asc file in .dsc for v1.0
  source format

Status in dpkg package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in dpkg source package in Xenial:
  Fix Committed

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  Source packages built on bionic where the upstream tarball comes with an upstream signature (.asc) are rejected by the ftpmaster, because dpkg-source there is too old.

  This is also affecting Debian imports in launchpad.

  [Test Case]
  Build a source pkg with a tarball & .asc on bionic, extract on xenial

  [Regression Potential]
  None.  The patch is very simple and merely recognizes the file as a valid member and then does nothing with it.
