[PATCH 10/39] kbuild, deb-pkg: improve maintainer identification

From: Sam Ravnborg
Date: Fri Jun 05 2009 - 19:44:01 EST


From: maximilian attems <max@xxxxxxx>

Try harder to find email and maintainer name.
Debian's own devscripts all use DEBEMAIL or DEBFULLNAME prior to an
eventual EMAIL or NAME environment variable. Match their logic.

"Anonymous" sounds nicer then "Kernel Compiler" if no name is found.
