Source: telepathy-glib Version: 0.18.1-1 Severity: serious Justification: fails to build from source (but built successfully in the past)
Package builds are not meant to write to $HOME, and some buildds (apparently including fasch for kfreebsd-amd64) enforce this by setting a $HOME which exists but is inaccessible. On Linux, D-Bus does not require access to $HOME, because clients of a DBusServer can prove their identities by using credentials-passing. On kFreeBSD, this is apparently not currently supported, at least by GDBus (from FreeBSD man pages, it should be, but maybe the implementation in GDBus is deficient or wrong?) and clients of the DBusServer are required to prove their identities by writing to ~/.dbus-keyrings. This isn't possible on fasch, causing a FTBFS: https://buildd.debian.org/status/fetch.php?pkg=telepathy-glib&arch=kfreebsd-amd64&ver=0.18.1-1&stamp=1334946724 Because GLib is involved, it might be necessary to set the Debian-specific environment variable G_HOME.
