I had this in my changelog: * Merge NMU Which lintian thought I was mistakenly declaring my upload as a NMU. I wasn't, but okay, I shouldn't call it a "merge". So I wrote this: * Acknwoledge NMU And it STILL didn't work. WTF? LINTIAN WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO?! Did you spot the typo? Yes? Well, you're smarter or less tired than me. So let's help our users here and spell out something they can just copy-paste. This covers the case where the maintainer tries to recognize a previous NMU upload in the commitlog but does so in a way that lintian doesn't recognize as an acknowledgement. lintian then treats this as the changelog announcing that it's a NMU, while it is not actually a NMU, kind of the opposite. This was the changelog that triggered the warning (and shouldn't: requests-file (2.1.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium * Acknwoledge NMU * New upstream release And this is the fixed changelog that silenced the warning: requests-file (2.1.0-1) unstable; urgency=medium * Acknowledge NMU * New upstream release
