[ubuntu-dev] Bug#725418: requestsync: fails to parse .devscripts with multi-line variables

[Ansgar Burchardt]

Package: ubuntu-dev-tools
Version: 0.149
Severity: normal
File: /usr/bin/requestsync

requestsync fails to parse my ~/.devscripts:

----
$ requestsync libquvi-scripts
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/usr/bin/requestsync", line 366, in <module>
    main()
  File "/usr/bin/requestsync", line 104, in main
    config = UDTConfig(options.no_conf)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ubuntutools/config.py", line 56, in __init__
    self.config = self.parse_devscripts_config()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/ubuntutools/config.py", line 69, in parse_devscripts_config
    parsed = shlex.split(line, comments=True)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/shlex.py", line 279, in split
    return list(lex)
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/shlex.py", line 269, in next
    token = self.get_token()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/shlex.py", line 96, in get_token
    raw = self.read_token()
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/shlex.py", line 172, in read_token
    raise ValueError, "No closing quotation"
ValueError: No closing quotation
----

I suspect this is due to one variable (DEBCHECKOUT_AUTH_URLS) spanning more
than one line:

----
DEBCHANGE_RELEASE_HEURISTIC=changelog
DEBCHANGE_MULTIMAINT_MERGE=yes

BTS_CACHE_MODE=mbox

DEBCOMMIT_SIGN_TAGS=yes

DEBCHECKOUT_SOURCE=download-only
DEBCHECKOUT_AUTH_URLS='
  (?:https?|git)://github.com/(.+) git+ssh://git\@github.com/$1
'
----[ ~/.devscripts ]
