Source: blt Version: 2.5.3+dfsg-1 Tags: patch User: [email protected] Usertags: rebootstrap
I tried building blt from the same working tree twice. The first time succeeds. The second time fails during dh_auto_clean by resource exhaustion: | dpkg-buildpackage: source package blt | dpkg-buildpackage: source version 2.5.3+dfsg-1 | dpkg-buildpackage: source distribution unstable | dpkg-buildpackage: source changed by Sergei Golovan <[email protected]> | dpkg-buildpackage: host architecture amd64 | dpkg-source --before-build blt-2.5.3+dfsg | debian/rules clean | dh clean | dh_testdir | dh_auto_clean At this point, the build hangs. Depending on your resource limits, the build is either killed by something or dh_auto_clean eventually determines that since make -s distclean failed there is no distclean target and continues. Now the reason is "cd src; $(MAKE) distclean" which is (due to lack of error checking) an infinite recursion in the absence of a src folder. I am attaching a patch that addresses the issue. Helmut
