[Pkg-sysvinit-devel] Bug#644884: changelog not truncated as intended

[Josh Triplett]

Package: sysvinit-utils
Version: 2.88dsf-13.11
Severity: normal

The sysvinit source package attempts to truncate the changelogs of
initscripts and sysvinit-utils to save space, but a copy-and-paste
problem prevents it from doing so on sysvinit-utils.  From debian/rules:

        #
        # sysvinit-utils package
        #
        $(MAKE) $(CROSS) -C debian/startpar DESTDIR=$(utiltmp) install
        dh_installchangelogs -psysvinit-utils doc/Changelog
        sed -i -ne '/sysvinit (2.86.ds1-47)/q' -e p \
                $(inittmp)$(doc)/initscripts/changelog.Debian

That sed should operate on
$(utiltmp)$(doc)/sysvinit-utils/changelog.Debian instead.

(Noticed when preparing the patch for 545181.)
