[Bug 1951988] Please test proposed package

[Brian Murray]

Hello William, or anyone else affected,

Accepted dpkg into focal-proposed. The package will build now and be
available at https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/dpkg/1.19.7ubuntu3.1
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, what testing has been
performed on the package and change the tag from verification-needed-
focal to verification-done-focal. If it does not fix the bug for you,
please add a comment stating that, and change the tag to verification-
failed-focal. 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 for helping!

N.B. The updated package will be released to -updates after the bug(s)
fixed by this package have been verified and the package has been in
-proposed for a minimum of 7 days.

Title:
  dpkg-source should fail if maintainer is not ubuntu and DEBEMAIL
  contains @canonical.com

Status in dpkg package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in dpkg source package in Focal:
  Fix Committed
Status in dpkg source package in Impish:
  Fix Committed
Status in dpkg package in Debian:
  New

Bug description:
  [Impact]
  dpkg-source will do a check for a scenario where the maintainer field in d/control does not contain "ubuntu" and the DEBEMAIL environment variable ends in @ubuntu.com. There are some Canonical employees that use an @canonical.com email address instead, so we should expand this check to also trigger on DEBEMAIL values that end in @canonical.com

  [Test Case]
  In a source package that doesn't have XSBC-Original-Maintainer set run
  1) DEBEMAIL=brian at canonical.com debuild -i -I -S -d

  With version of the dpkg in the release pocket you'll receive a
  warning, with the version of the package from -updates you'll instead
  receive an error.

  dpkg-source: error: Version number suggests Ubuntu changes, but Maintainer: does not have Ubuntu address
  dpkg-source: info: using options from sed-4.8/debian/source/options: --single-debian-patch --auto-commit
  dpkg-source: info: using source format '3.0 (quilt)'
  dpkg-buildpackage: error: dpkg-source -i.pc* -I.bzr -I.svn -ICVS -I.pc -i -I -b . subprocess returned exit status 2
  debuild: fatal error at line 1182:
  dpkg-buildpackage -us -uc -ui -i.pc* -I.bzr -I.svn -ICVS -I.pc -i -I -S -d failed

  [Other Info]
  Having every Ubuntu user update dpkg for a change that'll only benefit Ubuntu developers seems like a bit much. So instead we'll stage this in -proposed and in the event there is an SRU of dpkg or a security update we'll get this included.
