Package: devscripts
Version: 2.21.7

Running dch will give me:
dch warning: neither DEBEMAIL nor EMAIL environment variable is set
dch warning: building email address from username and mailname
dch: Did you see those 2 warnings? Press RETURN to continue...

The manual says I can put it in the ~/.devscripts file, but that
doesn't have any effect. strace says it's being read. Putting it
in an environment variable does make the warning go away.
