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
# build-indep gets invoked in buildds as well...
if [ -x /usr/bin/doxygen ]; then \
dh_auto_build --buildsystem=makefile --builddirectory=builddir -- docs; \
fi
dh_auto_build: error: unable to chdir to builddir
debian/rules:29: recipe for target 'builddir/doc/html/index.html' failed
make: *** [builddir/doc/html/index.html] Error 2
dpkg-buildpackage: error: debian/rules build-indep gave error exit status 2
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Sorry not to have a fix, as I am reporting many bugs similar to
this one. 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.
