builddeb: Pass the kernel:debarch substvar to dpkg-genchanges
PATCH 1/1 builddeb: Pass the kernel:debarch substvar to dpkg-genchanges
At the end of "make bindeb-pkg" I noticed the following warning:
dpkg-genchanges: warning: unknown substitution variable ${kernel:debarch}
It turns out that since dpkg version 1.19.0 dpkg-genchanges honors substitution variables in the Description field, while earlier versions silently left them alone, see https://bugs.debian.org/856547.
The result is an incomplete description of the linux-headers package in the generated .changes file. Fix it by passing the kernel:debarch substitution variable to dpkg-genchanges.
