[D-m-team] Bug#530384: debian-maintainers: Updating default email address (primary UID of DM key)

[Mathieu Malaterre (malat)]

Package: debian-maintainers
Version: 1.59
Severity: normal


Hi,

I think I suffer from the same problem as in #488770.
http://ftp-master.debian.org/dm-uploaders.html shows:

malat at users.sourceforge.net   Mathieu Malaterre   E1FAED1FA75C1DA7FD9F14F812914ABD0EA23F2B

which is not the address that I use for Debian package maintenance. From
reading #488770 I understand that the problem is that the intended
address has to be the primary UID of the key.

Therefore I edited the key, changed the primary UID and tried to
generate a new changeset. But for some reason jetring-gen does not
create a change set -- although the key did change (unix diff command
reports differences).
Following bug #511709, I even tried to remove one uid, but again
jetring-gen still refuse to see any changes.
Am I missing something?
