Package: src:libgnatcoll Version: 1.6gpl2014-9 User: [email protected] Usertags: binary-indep Severity: important
Dear maintainer: I tried to build this package with "dpkg-buildpackage -A" (i.e. only architecture-independent packages), and it failed: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [...] debian/rules build-indep dh build-indep --with ada-library --with sphinxdoc dh_testdir -i debian/rules override_dh_auto_configure make[1]: Entering directory '/<<PKGBUILDDIR>>' mv src/gnatcoll-io-native-codec__win32.adb src/gnatcoll-io-native-codec__win32.adb.backup mv src/gnatcoll-mmap-system__win32.adb src/gnatcoll-mmap-system__win32.adb.backup mv src/gnatcoll-mmap-system__win32.ads src/gnatcoll-mmap-system__win32.ads.backup mv src/gnatcoll__copy.gpr src/gnatcoll__copy.gpr.backup mv src/iconv/no_iconv src/iconv/no_iconv.backup mv src/gtk/nopython src/gtk/nopython.backup mv src/nopython src/nopython.backup [... snipped ...] writing output...

The common hints are: * If the only architecture-independent packages are dummy transitional ones and they were released with jessie, the easy fix is to drop them now. * When using "dh", it is allowed to use (independently) optional targets override_dh_foo-arch and override_dh_foo-indep (for several values of "foo"). Once that both "dpkg-buildpackage -A" and "dpkg-buildpackage -B" work properly, the package would be suitable to be uploaded in source-only form if you wish. Thanks.
